Next Monday (28/2/2005), 18:30, the Haifa Linux Club will once
again meet to hear guy keren talk about:
Writing a STAM disk-based file-system
for the Linux-2.4 kernel
Sequel to the successful thriller -
The VFS of the Linux-2.4 kernel -a play in 5 acts
Abstract
Writing a file-system for Linux-2.4 involves implementing several layers
of functions, and lots of poking into exisiting file-system code. We shall
uncover a simplistic schema for STAMFS - a STAM (no good translation to
english) file-system that is overly under-optimized, but allows us to
concentrate on the interfaces with the kernel, rather then on how to
implement a super-duper file-system. Remember - when implementing a
file-system, the page-cache is your best (and possibly only) friend...
Note: gain some understanding of the VFS sub-system before going any
further - coming to the previous (VFS) lecture is one way to do that...
