Enum InodeType 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum InodeType {
    File(Permissions),
    Directory(Permissions),
    Symlink(PathBuf),
    Hardlink(PathBuf),
    Fifo(Permissions),
    CharacterDevice(Permissions, Dev),
    BlockDevice(Permissions, Dev),
}

An inode type to be created with Root::create.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

File(Permissions)

Ordinary file, as in creat(2).

Directory(Permissions)

Directory, as in mkdir(2).

Symlink(PathBuf)

Symlink with the given path, as in symlinkat(2).

Note that symlinks can contain any arbitrary CStr-style string (it doesn’t need to be a real pathname). We don’t do any verification of the target name.

Hardlink(PathBuf)

Hard-link to the given path, as in linkat(2).

The provided path is resolved within the Root. It is currently not supported to hardlink a file inside the Root’s tree to a file outside the Root’s tree.

Fifo(Permissions)

Named pipe (aka FIFO), as in mkfifo(3).

CharacterDevice(Permissions, Dev)

Character device, as in mknod(2) with S_IFCHR.

BlockDevice(Permissions, Dev)

Block device, as in mknod(2) with S_IFBLK.
