ils opens the named image(s) and lists
inode information. By default, ils lists only the inodes of removed files.
Arguments:
- -e
- List every inode in the file system.
- -f fstype
- Specifies the
file system type. Use ’-f list’ to list the supported file system types. If
not given, autodetection methods are used.
- -s seconds
- The time skew of the
original system in seconds. For example, if the original system was 100
seconds slow, this value would be -100.
- -m
- Display the inode details in the
format that the mactime program reads (replaces the ils2mac script from
TCT)
- -O
- List only inodes of removed files that are still open or executing.
This option is short-hand notation for -aL "(see the fine controls section
below). (this used to be -o).
- -p
- Display orphan inodes (unallocated with no
file name)
- -r
- (default) List only inodes of removed files. This option is
short-hand notation for -LZ (see the fine controls section below).
- -i imgtype
- Identify
the type of image file, such as raw or split. Use ’-i list’ to list the supported
types. If not given, autodetection methods are used.
- -o imgoffset
- The sector
offset where the file system starts in the image.
- -b dev_sector_size
- The
size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not given, the value
in the image format is used (if it exists) or 512-bytes is assumed.
- -v
- Turn
on verbose mode, output to stderr.
- -V
- Display Version.
- image [images]
- One (or
more if split) disk or partition images whose format is given with ’-i’.
- start-stop
- Examine
the specified inode number or number range.
Fine controls:
- -a
- List only allocated
inodes: these belong to files with at least one directory entry in the
file system, and to removed files that are still open or executing.
- -A
- List
only unallocated inodes: these belong to files that no longer exist.
- -l
- List
only inodes with at least one hard link. These belong to files with at least
one directory entry in the file system.
- -L
- List only inodes without any hard
links. These belong to files that no longer exist, and to removed files
that are still open or executing.
- -z
- List only inodes with zero status change
time. Presumably, these inodes were never used.
- -Z
- List only inodes with non-zero
status change time. Presumably, these belong to files that still exist,
or that existed in the past.
The output format is in time machine format.
The output begins with a two-line header that describes the data origin,
and is followed by a one-line header that lists the names of the data attributes
that make up the remainder of the output:
- st_ino
- The inode number.
- st_alloc
- Allocation
status: ‘a’ for allocated inode, ‘f’ for free inode.
- st_uid
- Owner user ID.
- st_gid
- Owner
group ID.
- st_mtime
- UNIX time (seconds) of last file modification.
- st_atime
- UNIX
time (seconds) of last file access.
- st_ctime
- UNIX time (seconds) of last
inode status change.
- st_dtime
- UNIX time (seconds) of file deletion (LINUX
only).
- st_mode
- File type and permissions (octal).
- st_nlink
- Number of hard links.
- st_size
- File size in bytes.
- st_block0,st_block1
- The first two entries in the
direct block address list.
