This call was added in version C<1.0.58>. In previous

F<filename> may be a regular host file or a host device.
When this function is called before C<guestfs_launch> (the
usual case) then the first time you call this function,
the disk appears in the API as F</dev/sda>, the second time
as F</dev/sdb>, and so on.
You don't necessarily need to be root when using libguestfs. However
you obviously do need sufficient permissions to access the filename
for whatever operations you want to perform (ie. read access if you
just want to read the image or write access if you want to modify the
image).
This call checks that F<filename> exists.
F<filename> may be the special string C<"/dev/null">.
See L<guestfs(3)/NULL DISKS>.
The optional arguments are:
=over 4
=item C<readonly>
If true then the image is treated as read-only. Writes are still
allowed, but they are stored in a temporary snapshot overlay which
is discarded at the end. The disk that you add is not modified.
=item C<format>
This forces the image format. If you omit this (or use C<guestfs_add_drive>
or C<guestfs_add_drive_ro>) then the format is automatically detected.
Possible formats include C<raw> and C<qcow2>.
Automatic detection of the format opens you up to a potential
security hole when dealing with untrusted raw-format images.
See CVE-2010-3851 and RHBZ#642934. Specifying the format closes
this security hole.
=item C<iface>
This rarely-used option lets you emulate the behaviour of the
deprecated C<guestfs_add_drive_with_if> call (q.v.)
=item C<name>
This field used to be passed as a hint for guest inspection, but
it is no longer used.
=item C<label>
Give the disk a label. The label should be a unique, short
string using I<only> ASCII characters C<[a-zA-Z]>.
As well as its usual name in the API (such as F</dev/sda>),
the drive will also be named F</dev/disk/guestfs/I<label>>.
See L<guestfs(3)/DISK LABELS>.
=item C<protocol>
The optional protocol argument can be used to select an alternate
source protocol.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/REMOTE STORAGE>.
=over 4
=item C<protocol = "file">
F<filename> is interpreted as a local file or device.
This is the default if the optional protocol parameter
is omitted.
=item C<protocol = "ftp"|"ftps"|"http"|"https">
Connect to a remote FTP or HTTP server.
The C<server> parameter must also be supplied - see below.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/FTP AND HTTP>
=item C<protocol = "iscsi">
Connect to the iSCSI server.
The C<server> parameter must also be supplied - see below.
The C<username> parameter may be supplied. See below.
The C<secret> parameter may be supplied. See below.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/ISCSI>.
=item C<protocol = "nbd">
Connect to the Network Block Device server.
The C<server> parameter must also be supplied - see below.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/NETWORK BLOCK DEVICE>.
=item C<protocol = "rbd">
Connect to the Ceph (librbd/RBD) server.
The C<server> parameter must also be supplied - see below.
The C<username> parameter may be supplied. See below.
The C<secret> parameter may be supplied. See below.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/CEPH>.
=item C<protocol = "ssh">
Connect to the Secure Shell (ssh) server.
The C<server> parameter must be supplied.
The C<username> parameter may be supplied. See below.
See also: L<guestfs(3)/SSH>.
=back
=item C<server>
For protocols which require access to a remote server, this
is a list of server(s).
Protocol Number of servers required
-------- --------------------------
file List must be empty or param not used at all
ftp|ftps|http|https Exactly one
iscsi Exactly one
nbd Exactly one
rbd Zero or more
ssh Exactly one
Each list element is a string specifying a server. The string must be
in one of the following formats:
hostname
hostname:port
tcp:hostname
tcp:hostname:port
unix:/path/to/socket
If the port number is omitted, then the standard port number
for the protocol is used (see F</etc/services>).
=item C<username>
For the C<ftp>, C<ftps>, C<http>, C<https>, C<iscsi>, C<rbd> and C<ssh>
protocols, this specifies the remote username.
If not given, then the local username is used for C<ssh>, and no authentication
is attempted for ceph. But note this sometimes may give unexpected results, for
example if using the libvirt backend and if the libvirt backend is configured to
start the qemu appliance as a special user such as C<qemu.qemu>. If in doubt,
specify the remote username you want.
=item C<secret>
For the C<rbd> protocol only, this specifies the secret to use when
connecting to the remote device. It must be base64 encoded.
If not given, then a secret matching the given username will be looked up in the
default keychain locations, or if no username is given, then no authentication
will be used.
=item C<cachemode>
Choose whether or not libguestfs will obey sync operations (safe but slow)
or not (unsafe but fast). The possible values for this string are:
=over 4
=item C<cachemode = "writeback">
This is the default.
Write operations in the API do not return until a L<write(2)>
call has completed in the host [but note this does not imply
that anything gets written to disk].
Sync operations in the API, including implicit syncs caused by
filesystem journalling, will not return until an L<fdatasync(2)>
call has completed in the host, indicating that data has been
committed to disk.
=item C<cachemode = "unsafe">
In this mode, there are no guarantees. Libguestfs may cache
anything and ignore sync requests. This is suitable only
for scratch or temporary disks.
=back
=item C<discard>
Enable or disable discard (a.k.a. trim or unmap) support on this
drive. If enabled, operations such as C<guestfs_fstrim> will be able
to discard / make thin / punch holes in the underlying host file
or device.
Possible discard settings are:
=over 4
=item C<discard = "disable">
Disable discard support. This is the default.
=item C<discard = "enable">
Enable discard support. Fail if discard is not possible.
=item C<discard = "besteffort">
Enable discard support if possible, but don't fail if it is not
supported.
Since not all backends and not all underlying systems support
discard, this is a good choice if you want to use discard if
possible, but don't mind if it doesn't work.
=back
=item C<copyonread>
The boolean parameter C<copyonread> enables copy-on-read support.
This only affects disk formats which have backing files, and causes
reads to be stored in the overlay layer, speeding up multiple reads
of the same area of disk.
The default is false.
=item C<blocksize>
This parameter sets the sector size of the disk. Possible values are
C<512> (the default if the parameter is omitted) or C<4096>. Use
C<4096> when handling an "Advanced Format" disk that uses 4K sector
size (L<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Format>).
Only a subset of the backends support this parameter (currently only the
libvirt and direct backends do).

if an error is returned, then no disks are added.
This function does some minimal checks to make sure the libvirt
domain is not running (unless C<readonly> is true). In a future
version we will try to acquire the libvirt lock on each disk.
Disks must be accessible locally. This often means that adding disks
from a remote libvirt connection (see L<https://libvirt.org/remote.html>)
will fail unless those disks are accessible via the same device path
locally too.
The optional C<libvirturi> parameter sets the libvirt URI
(see L<https://libvirt.org/uri.html>). If this is not set then
we connect to the default libvirt URI (or one set through an
environment variable, see the libvirt documentation for full
details).
The optional C<live> flag is ignored in libguestfs E<ge> 1.48.
If the C<allowuuid> flag is true (default is false) then a UUID
I<may> be passed instead of the domain name. The C<dom> string is
treated as a UUID first and looked up, and if that lookup fails
then we treat C<dom> as a name as usual.

disks which are marked E<lt>readonly/E<gt> in the libvirt XML.
Possible values are:

groups of functionality in the appliance, which not all builds of
the libguestfs appliance will be able to provide.
The libguestfs groups, and the functions that those
groups correspond to, are listed in L<guestfs(3)/AVAILABILITY>.
You can also fetch this list at runtime by calling
C<guestfs_available_all_groups>.
The argument C<groups> is a list of group names, eg:
C<["inotify", "augeas"]> would check for the availability of
the Linux inotify functions and Augeas (configuration file
editing) functions.
The command returns no error if I<all> requested groups are available.
It fails with an error if one or more of the requested
groups is unavailable in the appliance.
If an unknown group name is included in the
list of groups then an error is always returned.
I<Notes:>

=item *
C<guestfs_feature_available> is the same as this call, but
with a slightly simpler to use API: that call returns a boolean
true/false instead of throwing an error.
=item *
You must call C<guestfs_launch> before calling this function.
The reason is because we don't know what groups are
supported by the appliance/daemon until it is running and can
be queried.
=item *
If a group of functions is available, this does not necessarily
mean that they will work. You still have to check for errors
when calling individual API functions even if they are
available.
=item *
It is usually the job of distro packagers to build
complete functionality into the libguestfs appliance.
Upstream libguestfs, if built from source with all
requirements satisfied, will support everything.
=item *
This call was added in version C<1.0.80>. In previous
versions of libguestfs all you could do would be to speculatively
execute a command to find out if the daemon implemented it.

longdesc = {|C<guestfs_mkmountpoint> and C<guestfs_rmmountpoint> are
specialized calls that can be used to create extra mountpoints
before mounting the first filesystem.
These calls are I<only> necessary in some very limited circumstances,
mainly the case where you want to mount a mix of unrelated and/or
read-only filesystems together.
For example, live CDs often contain a "Russian doll" nest of
filesystems, an ISO outer layer, with a squashfs image inside, with
an ext2/3 image inside that. You can unpack this as follows
in guestfish:
add-ro Fedora-11-i686-Live.iso
run
mkmountpoint /cd
mkmountpoint /sqsh
mkmountpoint /ext3fs
mount /dev/sda /cd
mount-loop /cd/LiveOS/squashfs.img /sqsh
mount-loop /sqsh/LiveOS/ext3fs.img /ext3fs
The inner filesystem is now unpacked under the /ext3fs mountpoint.
C<guestfs_mkmountpoint> is not compatible with C<guestfs_umount_all>.
You may get unexpected errors if you try to mix these calls. It is
safest to manually unmount filesystems and remove mountpoints after use.
C<guestfs_umount_all> unmounts filesystems by sorting the paths
longest first, so for this to work for manual mountpoints, you
must ensure that the innermost mountpoints have the longest
pathnames, as in the example code above.
For more details see L<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599503>
Autosync [see C<guestfs_set_autosync>, this is set by default on
handles] can cause C<guestfs_umount_all> to be called when the handle
is closed which can also trigger these issues.|} };

C<guestfs_inotify_files>.
If this is passed as C<0>, then the kernel (or previously set)
default is used. For Linux 2.6.29 the default was 16384 events.
Beyond this limit, the kernel throws away events, but records
the fact that it threw them away by setting a flag
C<IN_Q_OVERFLOW> in the returned structure list (see
C<guestfs_inotify_read>).
Before any events are generated, you have to add some
watches to the internal watch list. See: C<guestfs_inotify_add_watch> and
C<guestfs_inotify_rm_watch>.
Queued up events should be read periodically by calling
C<guestfs_inotify_read>
(or C<guestfs_inotify_files> which is just a helpful
wrapper around C<guestfs_inotify_read>). If you don't
read the events out often enough then you risk the internal
queue overflowing.
The handle should be closed after use by calling
C<guestfs_inotify_close>. This also removes any
watches automatically.
See also L<inotify(7)> for an overview of the inotify interface
as exposed by the Linux kernel, which is roughly what we expose
via libguestfs. Note that there is one global inotify handle

Partial copies can be made since you can specify optionally

overlapping regions may not be copied correctly.

the destination file is not large enough, it is extended.

set, then the copy appends to the destination file. The C<append>
flag currently cannot be set for devices.

"swap" means a Linux swap partition.
