     61  * filesystem types:
     62  *   "memfs": An in-memory filesystem.
     63  *     source: Unused.
     64  *     data: Unused.
     65  *
     66  *   "dev": A filesystem with various utility nodes. Some examples:
     67  *          "null": equivalent to /dev/null.
     68  *          "zero": equivalent to /dev/zero.
     69  *          "urandom": equivalent to /dev/urandom.
     70  *          "console[0-3]": logs to the JavaScript console with varying log
     71  *              levels.
     72  *          "tty": Posts a message to JavaScript, which will send a "message"
     73  *              event from this module's embed element.
     74  *     source: Unused.
     75  *     data: Unused.
     76  *
     77  *   "html5fs": A filesystem that uses PPAPI FileSystem interface, which can be
     78  *              read in JavaScript via the HTML5 FileSystem API. This filesystem
     79  *              provides the use of persistent storage. Please read the
     80  *              documentation in ppapi/c/ppb_file_system.h for more information.
     81  *     source: Unused.
     82  *     data: A string of parameters:
     83  *       "type": Which type of filesystem to mount. Valid values are
     84  *           "PERSISTENT" and "TEMPORARY". The default is "PERSISTENT".
     85  *       "expected_size": The expected file-system size. Note that this does
     86  *           not request quota -- you must do that from JavaScript.
     87  *       "filesystem_resource": If specified, this is a string that contains
     88  *           the integer ID of the Filesystem resource to use instead of
     89  *           creating a new one. The "type" and "expected_size" parameters are
     90  *           ignored in this case. This parameter is useful when you pass a
     91  *           Filesystem resource from JavaScript, but still want to be able to
     92  *           call open/read/write/etc.
     93  *
     94  *   "httpfs": A filesystem that reads from a URL via HTTP.
     95  *     source: The root URL to read from. All paths read from this filesystem
     96  *             will be appended to this root.
     97  *             e.g. If source == "http://example.com/path", reading from
     98  *             "foo/bar.txt" will attempt to read from the URL
     99  *             "http://example.com/path/foo/bar.txt".
    100  *     data: A string of parameters:
    101  *       "allow_cross_origin_requests": If "true", then reads from this
    102  *           filesystem will follow the CORS standard for cross-origin requests.
    103  *           See http://www.w3.org/TR/access-control.
    104  *       "allow_credentials": If "true", credentials are sent with cross-origin
    105  *           requests. If false, no credentials are sent with the request and
    106  *           cookies are ignored in the response.
    107  *       All other key/value pairs are assumed to be headers to use with
    108  *       HTTP requests.
    109  *
    110  *   "passthroughfs": A filesystem that passes all requests through to the
    111  *                    underlying NaCl calls. The primary use of this filesystem
    112  *                    is to allow reading NMF resources.

    114  *     data: Unused.
