+=head2 guestfs_checksum
+
+ char *guestfs_checksum (guestfs_h *handle,
+ const char *csumtype,
+ const char *path);

+The type of checksum to compute is given by the C<csumtype>
+parameter which must have one of the following values:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<crc>
+
+Compute the cyclic redundancy check (CRC) specified by POSIX
+for the C<cksum> command.

+=item C<md5>
+
+Compute the MD5 hash (using the C<md5sum> program).
+
+=item C<sha1>
+
+Compute the SHA1 hash (using the C<sha1sum> program).
+
+=item C<sha224>
+
+Compute the SHA224 hash (using the C<sha224sum> program).
+
+=item C<sha256>
+

+=item C<sha384>
+
+Compute the SHA384 hash (using the C<sha384sum> program).
+
+=item C<sha512>
+
+Compute the SHA512 hash (using the C<sha512sum> program).

+=head2 guestfs_debug
+
+ char *guestfs_debug (guestfs_h *handle,

+
+The C<guestfs_debug> command exposes some internals of
+C<guestfsd> (the guestfs daemon) that runs inside the

+on the local machine.
+
+C<filename> can also be a named pipe.
+
+See also C<guestfs_upload>, C<guestfs_cat>.
+
+This function returns 0 on success or -1 on error.
+
=head2 guestfs_exists
int guestfs_exists (guestfs_h *handle,
This function returns a string, or NULL on error.
The string is owned by the guest handle and must I<not> be freed.
+=head2 guestfs_get_qemu
+
+ const char *guestfs_get_qemu (guestfs_h *handle);
+
+Return the current qemu binary.
+
+This is always non-NULL. If it wasn't set already, then this will
+return the default qemu binary name.
+
+This function returns a string, or NULL on error.
+The string is owned by the guest handle and must I<not> be freed.

+=head2 guestfs_mount_options
+
+ int guestfs_mount_options (guestfs_h *handle,
+ const char *options,
+ const char *device,
+ const char *mountpoint);
+
+This is the same as the C<guestfs_mount> command, but it
+allows you to set the mount options as for the
+L<mount(8)> I<-o> flag.
+
+This function returns 0 on success or -1 on error.
+
+=head2 guestfs_mount_ro
+
+ int guestfs_mount_ro (guestfs_h *handle,

+This is the same as the C<guestfs_mount> command, but it
+allows you to set both the mount options and the vfstype
+as for the L<mount(8)> I<-o> and I<-t> flags.

This function returns 0 on success or -1 on error.
+=head2 guestfs_set_busy
+
+ int guestfs_set_busy (guestfs_h *handle);

+
+For more information on states, see L<guestfs(3)>.
+
+This function returns 0 on success or -1 on error.

+
+ int guestfs_set_qemu (guestfs_h *handle,
+ const char *qemu);

+Set the qemu binary that we will use.
+
+The default is chosen when the library was compiled by the
+configure script.
+
+You can also override this by setting the C<LIBGUESTFS_QEMU>
+environment variable.
+
+The string C<qemu> is stashed in the libguestfs handle, so the caller
+must make sure it remains valid for the lifetime of the handle.
+
+Setting C<qemu> to C<NULL> restores the default qemu binary.
+
+This function returns 0 on success or -1 on error.
