Attributes

Don't update access time on modify.

Append only for writing. Can be set or cleared only by a privileged user.
c

Compressed.

No dump.

Immutable. Can be set or cleared only by a privileged user.

Journalled file. This is useful only in cases where you are using an ext3 filesystem
mounted with the data="ordered" or data="writeback" attributes. The
data="journalled" option for the filesystem causes this operation to be performed for all
files in the system and makes this option irrelevant.

Synchronous updates.

Secure deletion. The contents are zeroed on deletion, and the file cannot be undeleted or
recovered in any way.

Undeletable. This causes a file to be saved even after it has been deleted, so that a user
can undelete it later.
