The project is an advanced project due to the scope and complexity of the project. It will require advanced programming skills in C and knowledge of building Linux kernel modules, Linux VFS interfaces and Linux memory management.
Currently within OpenAFS, we have support for folios, but we treat them as just a single page and do not take full advantage of folios. The project's goal is adapt the existing OpenAFS code to utilize multiple page folios. This will involve reviewing the existing code base to understand the existing use of folios, then expanding that use where appropriate. -- Cheyenne Wills cwi...@sinenomine.net On Tue, 8 Apr 2025 15:19:24 +0530 Soumyajyotii Ssarkar <soumyajyotisarka...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey everyone, > I was submitting a proposal for "OpenAFS Linux kernel module: > Multi-page folio support". > I was curious about the Project Scale.
