[Libguestfs] boot loader detection

Hello, I was looking for a way to detect the installed boot loader of an image and I found this: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript This script will inspection a lot of things on a running system and will output a Report. The most interesting part is that it uses known Master and Volume Boot Record byte-patterns to determine the installed boot loader: https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript/blob/master/bootinfoscript#L2... https://github.com/arvidjaar/bootinfoscript/blob/master/bootinfoscript#L2... Those signatures (byte patterns) are from real mode machine code but this code is not generated by a compiler and does not change often. I’ve isolated and simplified the signatures database here: https://github.com/skalkoto/snf-image-creator/blob/develop/image_creator/... and I was wondering if you care to add 2 new libguestfs API methods e.g.: char * guestfs_inspect_get_mbr_bootloader(guestfs *g) char * guestfs_inspect_get_vbr_bootloader(guests *g, char *device) that would return a string like “grub2”, “syslinux”, “windows”, etc. I can write the code. What do you think? Nikos
