Norman Feske b078224753 Replace Genode::strncpy by Genode::copy_cstring - Since Genode::strncpy is not 100% compatible with the POSIX strncpy function, better use a distinct name. - Remove bogus return value from the function, easing the potential enforcement of mandatory return-value checks later.

README

This directory contains an implementation of an ISO 9660 file system.

Limitations
-----------

At the moment, the only file-name format supported is the Rock Ridge extension.
The ISO specified 8.3 upper-case-file names are not supported, as well as Joliet.

Usage
-----

The server requires an ATAPI-block device as back-end. Please have a look at
'os/src/drivers/atapi'. The front-end of the server is implemented as a ROM
session server. In order to access this server from your application, you need
to route the ROM session to the ISO-ROM-session server in Genode's configuration
file:

!<start name="test-iso">
!  <resource name="RAM" quantum="10M" />
!    <route>
!      <service name="ROM"><child name="iso9660"/></service>
!    </route>
!</start>

Currently, the RAM quota necessary to obtain a file from the ISO file system
is allocated on behalf of the ISO server. Please make sure to provide
sufficient RAM quota to the ISO server.
