is a FUSE-based fault injection filesystem that allows to change fault-injections in runtime using simple configuration file.

Supported fault injections are:

• errinj_errno - return error value and set random errno.
• errinj_kill_caller - send SIGKILL to a process that invoked file operation.
• errinj_noop - replace file operation with no operation (similar to libeatmydata, but applicable to any file operation).
• errinj_slowdown - slowdown invoked file operation.

Prerequisites:

• CentOS: dnf install -y gcc -y cmake fuse fuse-devel
• Ubuntu: apt-get install -y gcc cmake fuse libfuse-dev
• FreeBSD: pkg install gcc cmake fusefs-libs pkgconf
• OpenBSD: pkg_add cmake
• macOS: brew install --cask osxfuse

$ cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
$ cmake --build build --parallel
