NAME

       cpio - format of cpio archive

DESCRIPTION

       The header structure, when the option of is not used (see cpio(1)), is:

       When the option is used, the header information is described by:

       Longtime  and Longfile are equivalent to and respectively.  The contents of each file are recorded together with other items describing the
       file.  Every instance of contains the constant 070707 (octal).  The items through have meanings explained in stat(2).  The  length  of  the
       null-terminated path name including the null byte, is given by

       The last record of the archive always contains the name Directories and the trailer are recorded with equal to zero.

       It  will not always be the case that and correspond to the results of but the values are always sufficient to tell whether two files in the
       archive are linked to each other.

       When a device special file is archived by HP-UX (using the option), contains a magic constant which is dependent  upon  the  implementation
       doing  the writing.  flags the device file as an HP-UX 32-bit device specifier, and contains the 32-bit device specifier (see stat(2)).	If
       the option is not present, special files are not archived or restored.  Non-HPUX device special files are never restored.
