The code below works here on a CentOS 6.4 box ('test' is a file at the
root of the volume):
$ ./a.out
hlen = 24
fd = -1
$ sudo ./a.out
hlen = 24
fd = 4
/* g++ handle_test.cpp -lhandle */
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <xfs/handle.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
void *xfs_handle = 0;
size_t hlen = 0;
if (path_to_fshandle("/mnt/disk1", &xfs_handle, &hlen) < 0)
exit(4);
if (path_to_handle("/mnt/disk1/test", &xfs_handle, &hlen) < 0)
exit(5);
printf("hlen = %d\n", (int)hlen);
int fd = open_by_handle(xfs_handle, hlen, O_RDWR);
printf("fd = %d\n", fd);
return 0;
}
