Functions

func ClearFd

func ClearFd(fd uintptr) error

ClearFd clears the loop device associated with filedescriptor fd.

func ClearFdFile

func ClearFdFile(devicename string) error

ClearFdFile clears the loop device "devicename"

func CtlGetFree

func CtlGetFree(fd uintptr) (uintptr, error)

CtlGetFree finds a free loop device querying the loop control device pointed by fd. It returns the number of the free loop device /dev/loopX

func FindDevice

func FindDevice() (name string, err error)

FindDevice finds an unused loop device.

func SetFd

func SetFd(lfd, ffd uintptr) error

SetFd associates a loop device pointed by lfd with a regular file pointed by ffd.

func SetFdFiles

func SetFdFiles(devicename, filename string) error

SetFdFiles associates loop device "devicename" with regular file "filename"
