xattr_get — Get an extended attribute
Description

Extended attributes have two different namespaces: user
and root. The user namespace is available to all users, while the root namespace
is available only to users with root privileges. xattr operates on the user
namespace by default, but this can be changed with the
flags
parameter.

Supported xattr flags XATTR_DONTFOLLOW
Do not follow the symbolic link but operate on symbolic link itself. XATTR_ROOT

Return Values

if the attribute doesn't
exist.

$file = '/usr/local/sbin/some_binary';
$signature = xattr_get($file, 'Root signature', XATTR_ROOT);
