Accessing raw devices (was: write alignment matters?)

2011-06-25 Thread Edgar Fuß
the code would need to determine the requirements and adapt to the particular device it was being used on now But how would you achieve that? Given your analogy to accessing terminals, you would need an equivalent of termcap. Or, more reasonably, ioctls telling you the constraints (alignment,

This would mean that raw devices as interfaces to disks are essentially useless. Not at all, as history has proven, as that's what the rule has always been. Only because [I]n the real world, the manufacturers don't make products that they can't sell, and people don't buy products that

extended attributes and lsextattr/extattr_list_file
