Thanks a lot. I was trying to copy on local disk and
guestfs_download ()
solved my problem.
Now I am trying to modify source code of guestfs_download () to extract
file in memory. Can you guide me what should i do to achieve that.
Use guestfs_pread maybe?
Or guestfs_download with a target of /dev/mapper? It really depends
what exactly you mean by "file in memory", however libguestfs (by
design) cannot memory-map a file.
