  2. List of file signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_signatures

    A file signature is data used to identify or verify the content of a file. Such signatures are also known as magic numbers or magic bytes. Many file formats are not intended to be read as text. If such a file is accidentally viewed as a text file, its contents will be unintelligible.

  3. sync (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sync_(Unix)

    The related system call fsync() commits just the buffered data relating to a specified file descriptor. [1] fdatasync() is also available to write out just the changes made to the data in the file, and not necessarily the file's related metadata. [2] Some Unix systems run a kind of flush or update daemon, which calls the sync function on a ...

  4. Executable and Linkable Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_and_Linkable_Format

    An ELF file has two views: the program header shows the segments used at run time, whereas the section header lists the set of sections.. In computing, the Executable and Linkable Format [2] (ELF, formerly named Extensible Linking Format) is a common standard file format for executable files, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps.

  5. File descriptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_descriptor

    File descriptors for a single process, file table and inode table. Note that multiple file descriptors can refer to the same file table entry (e.g., as a result of the dup system call [3]: 104 ) and that multiple file table entries can in turn refer to the same inode (if it has been opened multiple times; the table is still simplified because it represents inodes by file names, even though an ...

    The virtual machine then makes use of .NET metadata present, the root of which, IMAGE_COR20_HEADER (also called "CLR header") is pointed to by IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_COMHEADER (the entry was previously used for COM+ metadata in COM+ applications, hence the name [citation needed]) entry in the PE header's data directory.

  8. F2FS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F2FS

    If a file is linked, F2FS may loose its parent inode number so that fsync calls for the linked file need to perform the checkpoint every time. But, if the pino can be recovered after the checkpoint, roll-forward mechanism for the further fsync calls can be adjusted, which improves the fsync performance significantly.

  9. List of HTTP header fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_header_fields

    The Cache-Control: no-cache HTTP/1.1 header field is also intended for use in requests made by the client. It is a means for the browser to tell the server and any intermediate caches that it wants a fresh version of the resource. The Pragma: no-cache header field, defined in the HTTP/1.0 spec, has the same purpose. It, however, is only defined ...
