These endpoints are intended for working with the ROMFS file system used by the KasperskyOS kernel.
Information about methods of endpoints is provided in the tables below.
Methods of the fs.FS endpoint (kl.core.FS interface)
Method
Method purpose and parameters
Potential danger of the method
Open
Purpose
Opens a file.
Parameters
[in] name – name of the file.
[out] handle – value whose binary representation consists of multiple fields, including a handle field and a handle permissions mask field. The handle identifies the opened file.
[out] rc – return code.
Allows the kernel memory to be used up by creating a multitude of objects within it.
Close
Purpose
Closes a file.
Parameters
[in] handle – value whose binary representation consists of multiple fields, including a handle field and a handle permissions mask field. The handle identifies the opened file.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
Read
Purpose
Reads data from a file.
Parameters
[in] handle – value whose binary representation consists of multiple fields, including a handle field and a handle permissions mask field. The handle identifies the opened file.
[in] sectorNumber – data block number. Enumeration starts with zero.
[out] read – size of the read data in bytes.
[out] data – sequence containing the read data.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
GetSize
Purpose
Gets the size of a file.
Parameters
[in] handle – value whose binary representation consists of multiple fields, including a handle field and a handle permissions mask field. The handle identifies the opened file.
[out] size – file size in bytes.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
GetId
Purpose
Gets the unique ID of a file.
Parameters
[in] handle – value whose binary representation consists of multiple fields, including a handle field and a handle permissions mask field. The handle identifies the opened file.
[out] id – unique ID of the file.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
Count
Purpose
Gets the number of files in the file system.
Parameters
[out] count – number of files in the file system.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
GetInfo
Purpose
Gets the name and unique ID of a file based on the file index.
Parameters
[in] index – file index. Enumeration starts with zero.
[in] nameLenMax – buffer size for saving the file name.
[out] name – name of the file.
[out] id – unique ID of the file.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A
GetFsSize
Purpose
Gets the size of the file system.
Parameters
[out] fsSize – size of the file system in bytes.
[out] rc – return code.
N/A

Change
Purpose
Changes the file system image.
A different ROMFS image loaded into process memory will be used instead of the ROMFS image that was created during the solution build.
Parameters
[in] base – pointer to the file system image.
[in] size – size of the file system image in bytes.
[out] rc – return code.
Allows the following:
Use an ROMFS image containing arbitrary programs and data.
