I've attached a patch to generator.ml for the proposed new file apis. Note that hread, hpread, hwrite and hpwrite are slightly different to the apis I proposed previously. I've also added hallocate for good measure.

This two-part patch implements the 'hexedit' command described here: http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/09/18/new-feature-guestfish-hexedit/#content The first part implements two new APIs for partial writing and reading of files. These are modelled after guestfs_upload and guestfs_download but allow you to specify an offset and (for download only) a size: int guestfs_download_offset

This API is used to stop a md device. When we want to move a device to another md array, we should stop the md device which contained this device first.

Add the new API btrfs-fsck to check the btrfs filesystem. Btrfs is currently under heavy development, and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review. But it'll be useful in the near future. Signed-off-by: Wanlong Gao <gaowanlong at cn.fujitsu.com> --- daemon/btrfs.c | 17 +++++++++++++++++ generator/generator_actions.ml | 11 +++++++++++

A NEW API blkid. It can print the device attributes. Use it after list-devices, we can list ower devices and the attributes of each device. Use it like: blkid <device> It's should be a usefull function, and needed no test case for it.
