TODO
----
- add command line interface for blkid_probe_filter_types():
# blkid -p -o udev --filter-type nofat
- (?) we need to ignore cache and config files when the files are writable
for non-root users and the library is linked with suid programs
- add -<BE|LE> suffix to test images for native-endian filesystems (e.g. swap)
and add support for such functionality to tests/ts/blkid/low-probe
- do we really need to depend on libuuid? Maybe the default should be
use in-tree code rather and link against libuuid -- especially when we
need it for uuid_unparse() only.
- consolidate "getsize" stuff (see getsize.c and lib/blkdev.c)
- cleanup __attribute__ usage
- add stripe size / alignment retrival support to libbkid for use
with mkfs. This would allow to deprecate libdisk from xfsprogs (1)
in favour of a common libblkid.
[ -- Christoph Hellwig, 16 Feb 2009 ]
(1) http://git.kernel.org/?p=fs/xfs/xfsprogs-dev.git;a=tree;f=libdisk;
[ .. or move whole libdisk to util-linux-ng and merge partx code to the
library -- kzak ]
- use /sys/block/<devname>/dm/name rather than scan /dev/mapper/ for the name
(see devname.c: probe_one()). The sysfs entry has been introduced by kernel
patch 784aae735d9b0bba3f8b9faef4c8b30df3bf0128.
- in lib/fsprobe.c wrapper use blkid_parse_tag_string() rather than a local
parser implementation
- use fstatat() in blkid__scan_dir()
- add evaluate.c: blkid_evaluate_tag_to_buffer() (and add lib/canonicalize.c:
canonicalize_path_to_buffer())
- add values:
FSSIZE -- filesystem size (klibc requirement)
SBOFFSET -- superblock offset; offset where SB was detected
(swapon requirement to check details from swap header)
MAGIC -- magic string
MAGICLEN -- length of magic string
