cpio(5)DESCRIPTION
GNU cpio copies files between archives and directories. It supports the following archive formats: old binary cpio, old portable cpio, SVR4 cpio with and without checksum, HP cpio, and various tar formats.The operation mode is requested by one of the following options:
- -o, --create
- Copy-out. Read a list of file names from the standard input and create on the standard output (unless overridden by the --file option) an archive containing these files.
- -i, --extract
- Copy-in. Read the archive from standard input (or from the file supplied with the --file option) and extract files from it, or (if the -t option is given) list its contents to the standard output. If one or more patterns are supplied, read or list only files matching these patterns. The -t option alone implies -i.
- -p, --pass-through
- Pass-through. Read a list of file names from the standard input and copy them to the specified directory.
- -?, --help
- Give a short help summary and exit.
- --usage
- Print a short usage message and exit.
- --version
- Print program version and exit.

OPTIONS
Operation modifiers valid in any mode
- --block-size=FIBLOCK-SIZE
- Set the I/O block size to BLOCK-SIZE * 512 bytes.
- -B
- Set the I/O block size to 5120 bytes.
- -c
- Use the old portable (ASCII) archive format. This is the same as -H odc.
- -C, --io-size=NUMBER
- Set the I/O block size to the given NUMBER of bytes.
- -D, --directory=DIR
- Change to directory DIR.
- --force-local
- Archive file is local, even if its name contains colons.
- -H, --format=FORMAT
-
Use given archive FORMAT. Valid formats are (the number in
parentheses gives maximum size for individual archive member):
-
- bin
- The obsolete binary format. (2147483647 bytes)
- odc
- The old (POSIX.1) portable format. (8589934591 bytes)
- newc
- The new (SVR4) portable format, which supports file systems having more than 65536 i-nodes. (4294967295 bytes)
- crc
- The new (SVR4) portable format with a checksum added.
- tar
- The old tar format. (8589934591 bytes)
- ustar
- The POSIX.1 tar format. Also recognizes GNU tar archives, which are similar but not identical. (8589934591 bytes)
- hpbin
- The obsolete binary format used by HPUX's cpio (which stores device files differently).
- hpodc
- The portable format used by HPUX's cpio (which stores device files differently).
-
- -R, --owner=[USER][:.][GROUP]
-
In copy-in and copy-pass mode, set the ownership of all files created
to the specified USER and/or GROUP. In copy-out mode,
store the supplied owner information in the archive.
USER and GROUP are first looked up in the system user and group databases. If not found, cpio checks if they consist of decimal digits only and, if so, treats them as numeric UID and GID, correspondingly.
To avoid the lookup and ensure that arguments are treated as numeric values, prefix them with a plus sign, e.g.: -R +0:+0.
- --quiet
- Do not print the number of blocks copied at the end of the run.
- --rsh-command=COMMAND
- Use remote COMMAND instead of rsh.
- -v, --verbose
- Verbosely list the files processed.
- -V, --dot
- Print a "." for each file processed.
- -W, --warning=FLAG
-
Controlsи warning display. The FLAG is one of
none,
to disable all warnings,
all
to enable them,
truncate,
to enable warnings about field truncation, and
no-truncate,
to disable them.
Multiple -W options accumulate.
Operation modifiers valid in copy-in and copy-out modes
- -F, --file=[[USER@]HOST:]ARCHIVE-FILE
- Use this ARCHIVE-FILE instead of standard input (in copy-in mode) or standard output (in copy-out mode). Optional USER and HOST specify the user and host names in case of a remote archive.
- -M, --message=STRING
- Print STRING when the end of a volume of the backup media is reached.
Operation modifiers valid only in copy-in mode
- -b, --swap
- Swap both halfwords of words and bytes of halfwords in the data. Equivalent to -sS.
- -f, --nonmatching
- Only copy files that do not match any of the given patterns.
- -n, --numeric-uid-gid
- In the verbose table of contents listing, show numeric UID and GID.
- -r, --rename
- Interactively rename files.
- -s, --swap-bytes
- Swap the bytes of each halfword in the files.
- -S, --swap-halfwords
- Swap the halfwords of each word (4 bytes) in the files.
- --to-stdout
- Extract files to standard output.
- -E, --pattern-file=FILE
- Read additional patterns specifying filenames to extract or list from FILE.
- --only-verify-crc
- When reading a CRC format archive, only verify the CRC's of each file in the archive, without actually extracting the files.
Operation modifiers valid only in copy-out mode
- -A, --append
- Append to an existing archive.
- --device-independent, --reproducible
- Create reproducible archives. This is equivalent to --ignore-devno --renumber-inodes.
- --ignore-devno
- Store 0 in the device number field of each archive member, instead of the actual device number.
- -O [[USER@]HOST:]ARCHIVE-NAME
-
Use ARCHIVE-NAME instead of standard output. Optional USER and
HOST specify the user and host names in case of a remote
archive.
The output archive name can be specified wither using this option, or using -F (--file), but not both.
- --renumber-inodes
- Renumber inodes when storing them in the archive.
Operation modifiers valid only in copy-pass mode
- -l, --link
- Link files instead of copying them, when possible.
Operation modifiers valid in copy-in and copy-out modes
- --absolute-filenames
- Do not strip file system prefix components from the file names.
- --no-absolute-filenames
- Create all files relative to the current directory.
Operation modifiers valid in copy-out and copy-pass modes
- -0, --null
- Filenames in the list are delimited by null characters instead of newlines.
- -a, --reset-access-time
- Reset the access times of files after reading them.
- -I [[USER@]HOST:]ARCHIVE-NAME
-
Use ARCHIVE-NAME instead of standard input. Optional USER and
HOST specify the user and host names in case of a remote
archive.
The input archive name can be specified wither using this option, or using -F (--file), but not both.
- -L, --dereference
- Dereference symbolic links (copy the files that they point to instead of copying the links).
Operation modifiers valid in copy-in and copy-pass modes
- -d, --make-directories
- Create leading directories where needed.
- -m, --preserve-modification-time
- Retain previous file modification times when creating files.
- --no-preserve-owner
- Do not change the ownership of the files.
- --sparse
- Write files with large blocks of zeros as sparse files.
- -u, --unconditional
- Replace all files unconditionally.
RETURN VALUE
GNU cpio exits with code 0 if it was able to successfully complete the requested operation. On errors, it exits with code 2.SEE ALSO
