Hi, I'm new to AFS and to the mailing list. I need to design with a certain degree of detail (pseudo-code and data structures included) coherency policies for a cache manager quite similar to the AFS one, and I was browsing the documentation and code of OpenAfs in search for inspiration, but I eventually got lost due to the complexity of the project; I was wondering if anyone could point me at the right direction either in the source code (which files and modules implement the cache manager and callbacks in OpenAfs?) or to a developer-oriented guide. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help :)
Have you looked at the specification in http://www.openafs.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/openafs/doc/pdf/fscm-ispec.pdf It's fairly dated, but if this is for an academic project, it will be an authoritative starting point.
