+ * refere to them.
+ *
+ * Use @ref sqfs_xattr_writer_begin to start a block of key-value pairs, then
+ * add the individual pairs with @ref sqfs_xattr_writer_add and finaly use
+ * @ref sqfs_xattr_writer_end which returns the required token.
+ *
+ * Finally, use @ref sqfs_xattr_writer_flush to have the extended attributes
+ * written to disk.
+ *
+ * The writer internally takes care of propper deduplication and packaging
+ * everything up in compressed meta data blocks in the multi-level hierarchy
+ * used by SquashFS. See @ref sqfs_xattr_reader_t for a brief overview on how
+ * SquashFS stores extended attributes.
