POSIX defines ino_t to be of an unsigned integer type, and searching
around the net didn't tell me of any definitions conflicting that. So
every ino_t can be represented in an uint64_t. (Assuming that is the
largest integer type in use for an inode number, but I'm sure that
assumption will hold for a while)
(dev_t, on the other hand, is a bit messier. Still figuring out what to
do with that.)
The architecture is explained in dir.h. The reasons for these changes is
two-fold:
- calc.c was too complex, it simply did too many things. 399ccdeb is a
nice example of that: Should have been an easy fix, but it introduced
a segfault (fixed in 0b49021a), and added a small memory leak.
- This architecture features a pluggable input/output system, which
should make a file export/import feature relatively simple.
The current commit does not feature any user interface, so there's no
feedback yet when scanning a directory. I'll get to that in a bit.
I've also not tested the new scanning code very well yet, so I might
have introduced some bugs.
