My driver now splits orphan deletion among multiple transactions, but it doesn't bother to update the inode record for half-deleted files. This is reasonable because the orphans are not real files, and we don't want to waste time on them. My fsck is still checking one field though: the sparse byte count. Stop that. By the way, the official driver behaves like us in all cases I've encountered so far, but I have never seen what it does to sparse files. I have confirmed, however, that the official fsck has no problem with this, so it's probably the same. Signed-off-by: Ernesto A. Fernández <ernesto@corellium.com>
Apfsprogs is a suite of userland software to work with the Apple File System on Linux. It's intended mainly to help test the Linux kernel module that can be retrieved from <git://github.com/eafer/linux-apfs-rw.git>. The following are included: o mkapfs: an experimental filesystem build tool o apfs-snap: a tool to take snapshots of a volume mounted with our module o apfsck: a filesystem integrity checker, for now only useful for testers Usage ===== To build any of the tools, just cd to its directory and run make The resulting executable will have the name of the tool, and a man page is available under the same directory. If you run make install the files will be copied to the typical locations in the user home folder: the binary is placed in ~/bin, and the man page in ~/share/man/man8. You can override those paths by setting the BINDIR and MANDIR variables, for example: make install BINDIR=/sbin MANDIR=/usr/share/man/man8/ Credits ======= Written by Ernesto A.
