udisks_linux_block_object_new ()

UDisksLinuxBlockObject *
udisks_linux_block_object_new (UDisksDaemon *daemon,
                               UDisksLinuxDevice *device);

Create a new block object.

udisks_linux_block_object_uevent ()

void
udisks_linux_block_object_uevent (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object,
                                  const gchar *action,
                                  UDisksLinuxDevice *device);

Updates all information on interfaces on object as a result of incoming uevent processing.

udisks_linux_block_object_get_daemon ()

UDisksDaemon *
udisks_linux_block_object_get_daemon (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Gets the daemon used by object .

udisks_linux_block_object_get_device ()

UDisksLinuxDevice *
udisks_linux_block_object_get_device (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Gets the current UDisksLinuxDevice for object . Connect to “notify” to track changes to the “device” property.

udisks_linux_block_object_get_device_file ()

gchar *
udisks_linux_block_object_get_device_file
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Gets the device path for this object (eg. /dev/sda1).

udisks_linux_block_object_get_device_number ()

dev_t
udisks_linux_block_object_get_device_number
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Gets the device number for this object.

udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent ()

void
udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Triggers a 'change' uevent in the kernel.

The triggered event will bubble up from the kernel through the udev stack and will eventually be received by the udisks daemon process itself. This method does not wait for the event to be received.

udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent_sync ()

gboolean
udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent_sync
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object,
                                guint timeout_seconds);

Triggers a 'change' uevent in the kernel and waits until it's received and processed by udisks.

Unlike udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent() that just triggers a synthetic uevent to the kernel, this call will actually block and wait until the UDisksLinuxProvider receives the uevent, performs probing and processes the uevent further down the UDisks object stack. Upon returning from this function call the caller may assume the event has been fully processed, all D-Bus objects are updated and settled. Typically used in busy wait for a particular D-Bus interface.

Note that this uses synthetic uevent tagging and only works on linux kernel 4.13 and higher. In case an older kernel is detected this acts like the classic udisks_linux_block_object_trigger_uevent() call and FALSE is returned.

udisks_linux_block_object_reread_partition_table ()

void
udisks_linux_block_object_reread_partition_table
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Requests the kernel to re-read the partition table for object .

The events from any change this may cause will bubble up from the kernel through the udev stack and will eventually be received by the udisks daemon process itself. This method does not wait for the event to be received.

udisks_linux_block_object_contains_filesystem ()

gboolean
udisks_linux_block_object_contains_filesystem
                               (UDisksObject *object);

Check whether filesystem has been detected on the block device.

udisks_linux_block_object_lock_for_cleanup ()

void
udisks_linux_block_object_lock_for_cleanup
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Acquires the "cleanup" lock of the block device object . Typically used to signal the cleanup thread that the block device is busy.

udisks_linux_block_object_try_lock_for_cleanup ()

gboolean
udisks_linux_block_object_try_lock_for_cleanup
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Attempts to lock the block device object for cleanup. Typically used by the cleanup thread to check whether the block device is busy and cleanup can be performed.

udisks_linux_block_object_release_cleanup_lock ()

void
udisks_linux_block_object_release_cleanup_lock
                               (UDisksLinuxBlockObject *object);

Releases a lock previously acquired by udisks_linux_block_object_lock_for_cleanup().
