This can be used to inspect or modify an image, or to +generate an image without having to have a local directory with the +files in it. + +The file format is very simple, with one file per line, first with a +11 fixed fields, followed by a variable number of extended attributes +for the file. + +Fields are separated by a single space, and lines by a single +newline. Extended attributes further use '=' to separate key from +value. Therefore all these characters, as well as non-printable +characters are escaped in the fields ('=' only in xattr fields). +Also, back-slashes have to be escaped as they are used as the +escape mechanism. + +Escapes are of the form \xXY which escapes a single byte using two hex +digits. For example \x00 is the zero byte and \xff is the 255 byte. +Optionally, these custom escapes are suppored: + + **\\\\** + : backslash. + + **\\n** + : newline. + + **\\r** + : carriage return. + + **\\t** + : tab + + **\\=** + : equal + +Optional fields tha are not set contain '-', and if a field actually +has that particular value it is escaped. + +The fixed fields on a line are (all numbers in base 10 unless +otherwise specified): + +**PATH** +: The full, absolute path of the file in the image. Any directories + used as prefix in the path must have been in the file before this + line. + +**SIZE** +: The size of the file. This is ignored for directories. + +**MODE** +: The st_mode stat field the file in octal, which includes both the + permissions and the file type. + + Additionally, if the file is a hardlink, then this field will + start with a single '@' character, and the payload field points + to the target file. Note that all other fields are typically + filled out for a hardlink as the target, but for generation + of a new file we ignore all the fields except the payload. + +**NLINK** +: The st_nlink stat field. + +**UID** +: The owner uid. + +**GID** +: The owner gid. + +**RDEV** +: The st_rdev stat field. + +**MTIME** +: The modification time in seconds and nanoseconds since the unix + epoch, separated by '.'. Note this is not a float, "1.1" means + one second and one nanosecond. + +**PAYLOAD** +: The payload of the file. For symbolic links this means the symlink + targets. For regular files this is the relative pathname for the + backing files. For hardlinks (see **MODE**), this is the path of + another file in this file that this is a hardlink of. + +**CONTENT** +: Small files can inline the actual content in the composefs + image. This contains an escaped version of the content. + This must match the size specified in **SIZE** + +**DIGEST** +: A fs-verity digest for the file (only used for regular files, and + not if *CONTENT* is set) that will be validated against backing + files when used. + +After the fixed fields comes the xattrs, escaped and space-separated in the form +**KEY**=**VALUE**.
