name_to_handle_at_rs -- Rust bindings for name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() system calls in Linux

This library crate provides Rust bindings for Linux system calls that allow the caller to refer to the i-node using a byte array known as file handle. The file handle remains valid for the entire life-time of the i-node.

Some uses of this crate:

• User-space NFS servers can use it to maintain NFS file handles
• Fanotify users can use it if they wish to identify watched files using file handles

To read the documentation, use cargo doc. This is a Linux-only project (name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() system calls are Linux-specific).
