Editors Note: a follow up post that provides code to use this technique without pyflag has been combined with this one I've been a bit busy recently as I'm preparing to move across the world to the US to work at a small Internet company in the SF Bay Area.

If you are writing a complex system in C you could do worse than to replace your calls to malloc with calls to talloc. So that's talloc, but the thing you really should know about talloc is right there at the bottom of the project page. In particular: when…

I'm releasing the code and docs that I wrote during my Xbox 360 research. py360 is a FUSE filesystem driver and associated file parsers for reading Xbox 360 hard drives.

The main components are a FUSE file system for mounting the XTAF file system and a set of python classes for parsing the the STFS, XDBF and Account block file formats and the XTAF file system.
