创建Linux Loopback文件系统

创建一个4G的数据文件，用来作为虚拟设备的载体

Linux:~$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=./loopback.img bs=1M count=4096
4096+0 records in
4096+0 records out
4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB, 4.0 GiB) copied, 104.492 s, 41.1 MB/s

刚创建的文件数据类型是data

Linux:~$ file loopback.img 
loopback.img: data

对载体进行EXT4的文件系统格式化，改变数据类型

Linux:~$ sudo mkfs.ext4 loopback.img 
mke2fs 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018)
warning: Unable to get device geometry for loopback.img
Discarding device blocks: done

现在文件数据类型是ext4

Linux:~$ file loopback.img 
loopback.img: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=8e20a754-c0bc-4f31-b15b-6bc0a7ae2833 (extents) (64bit) (large files) (huge files)

 

创建要挂载的文件目录

Linux:~$ sudo mkdir /mnt/loopback

通过mount命令将创建好的虚拟文件系统loopback.img挂载到/mnt/loopback/目录下

Linux:~$ sudo mount -o loop loopback.img /mnt/loopback/

通过df命令查看刚挂的文件系统

Linux:~$ df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev            1.9G     0  1.9G   0% /dev
tmpfs           395M  1.9M  393M   1% /run
/dev/sda3       184G   63G  112G  37% /
tmpfs           2.0G   34M  1.9G   2% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M  4.0K  5.0M   1% /run/lock
tmpfs           2.0G     0  2.0G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/loop3      3.9G   16M  3.7G   1% /mnt/loopback

卸载刚挂载的虚拟文件系统，用df命令验证，发现/dev/loopback3设备消失

Linux:~$ sudo umount /mnt/loopback
Linux:~$ df
