(** Raised by [removeDirContent] whenever trying to delete a block or
    char device. *)
exception UnexpectedFileType of string

(** Raised by [write_no_partial]. *)
exception WriteFailed

(** Removes the contents of a directory. Raises [UnexpectedFileType]
    if the directory contain a file representing a block or a

    obtained when [f] did not return [None]. *)
val list_dir_pred_map :

(** [mkdirSafe fp perms] creates a directory at [fp] unless a
    directory or a file already exists here. Return [false] if a

    created, and raise an exception [Failure] if a file already exists
