-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 cool, thanks. That's unfortunately very hard to do if you are using usual system calls (like readdir(2), or open(2)), because they are tunneled through VFS that enforces some semantics. Enforces as in, if I enter the name of a directory, it adds a / to it before it passes to the filesystem? I know it doesn't chop off trailing slashes (except in Reiser4, for obvious reasons). Or, as this has a serious potential for becoming offtopic, can you point me to some reading material? Another problem ("ls seems to know it's a file") is with user level programs that are sometimes too smart. Maybe I'll try to fix that.

Re: FW: reiser4 plugin for maildir
[reiser4 plugins to make mail delivery faster] There are a few basic things that slow down mail servers when they talk to filesystems: 1) multiple threads delivering to the same directory contend for the directory semaphore for creating new files 2) atomic creation of an entire file 3) high load leads to numerous small synchronous filesystem operations when multiple threads all try to deliver at once. #1 is best fixed at the VFS level, basically allowing more fine grained directory locks (lustre needs this as well I think). It could be dealt with entirely inside reiser4, but this is a generic need for linux as a whole I think. #2 and #3 could be dealt with in a reiser4 transaction subsystem. Basically the mail server would deliver a number of messages and trigger commits at regular intervals, and reiser4 would make sure the files were created atomically in the FS. The mail server would not report the file as delivered to the smtp client until the commit had completed. So, I definitely think you could use reiser4 to gain significant mail delivery performance. But you probably don't need a specific plugin outside the transaction subsystems. The obvious benefit of only using the transaction systems is that you won't need to teach mail clients about the reiser4 plugin. There's lots of other plugin topics related to teaching the FS about various file formats. This may or may not be a good idea in some cases, but it is a good place for research. I'd start by looking at the xattr interfaces and Hans' ideas for FS-as-a-database. -chris

Ok. At least I'm on the right track. I was re-reading the reiser4 docs yesterday and specifically the methods that need to be implemented for each reiser4 plugin/object type. All very elegant, but what wasn't too clear was the interface between the new apps that can take advantage of these pluggable objects directly and the interface between old-style POSIX apps and reiser4 that just want to see these objects as files. Since I just joined the reiserfs list, I'll copy/move this discussion there. I'm sure there are a lot of people thinking about just these types of issues. That way we can efficiently offload your brain, Hans ;-) Some use-cases: (man haven't done some of this for a while...) 1. Web application in PHP or something acting as an OGG or MP3 store, archives and reads audio files. There is obvious structure in these files and it seems silly to keep opening and reparsing their contents to extract various bits of header information or separate forks in the data. The web app understands this and R/W's the MP3 file using reiser4 into its constituent components via the MP3 reiser4 plugin. All interaction between the app and the MP3 object lives at this layer of OO abstraction. Meanwhile the host system's backup procedure uses POSIX fopens or whatever to backup and restore the MP3 files. Does the plugin have to know how to serially marshall and unmarshall the object for POSIX programs so that it appears as a 'normal' MP3 file? 2. Someone develops a new mod_dav (mod_reiserDAV?) for Apache, that uses a special reiser4 plugin to implement all of the DAV structures in reiser4 instead of the current hack that uses a DBM database. Interesting/cool features of DAV such as ordered DAV containers and revision control are implemented directly with the reiser4 plugin. 3. As mentioned before, Dan Berstein's qmail program goes through a *lot* of gyrations to efficiently implement many files in one directory (as well as other issues). I haven't tried a qmail queue on reiser3, but I gather that they end up fighting each other to achieve the same goals. Rather than qmail trying to simulate a better file system, why not hack it to implement message queuing functions in a reiser4 plugin. Anyway, I'm just a beginner at kernel level filesystems, but I do have about 20 years systems software background so maybe I should give it a go. It's not going to get done tomorrow, but it should be fun. All I have to loose is my test partition ;-) jim burnes security engineer great-west, denver

Leo> Short answer: because otherwise you have ""attributes" that cannot Leo> interact with files in all the same ways that files can interact Leo> with files" ( http://www.namesys.com/v4/v4.html ). Hard linking isn't a universal attribute, though. For example, you cannot hard link over different filesystems. If an attribute (such as uid, premissions, etc.) are implemented by just taking the file's standard stat data and exposing it as a file interface, that it is similar to that data being from a different filesystem, and so you can't hardlink. This would be similar, I suppose, to if a plugin exposes an MP3's id3 data as files -- it would make no sense to be able to hardlink that, since the data is stored in the MP3 file, and not as part of the filesystem. Yes, it is impossible to hard-link between two files on different volumes (except at mount points) in the Unix filesystem, but it shouldn't be. (More generally, with the necessary permissions it should be possible to make any file the child of any directory via a hard link, except where doing so would create a cycle.) This implies that two filesystems can share an identification number between them. There's no semantic reason why it shouldn't be possible; in other words, if it's meaningful for a file to be named both /pub/pictures/sunrise and /home/alice/pictures/daylight , why would it in fact not be meaningful just because a volume is mounted at /home ? Hard-linking across mount subtrees is not possible in existing Unix filesystems for non-semantic reasons, the most interesting of which is that it doesn't fit with the Unix concept of mount subtrees and mount points. The correct solution to this is to throw out that concept, something I'll post about later. Note that hard-linking between files on different volumes is a necessity if you want to do the kind of things discussed in Future Vision cleanly. If I did a simple search for all mp3s at least 3 minutes long, I would expect to get back a directory which had as its children all the 3-min.+ mp3s visible to me on the computer. I wouldn't necessarily care if some of the mp3s were on a different mount subtree to the search directory, and I wouldn't expect to find things like symlinks being used to duct-tape the mp3s onto the directory. (As to your id3 example: Yes, the id3 file data is stored in the mp3 file, but then the /etc/motd file data is stored in the file /dev/hda1 or whatever. There's no reason why it makes any less sense be able to hard-link to the id3 file than to /etc/motd. Why shouldn't I be able to use a search to get a directory linked to all the id3 files on the system?) But for the sake of argument, let's assume that indeed it should remain impossible to hard-link across mount subtrees, or at least that it will. Will this actually prevent the problems of ordinary directories hard-linking to attribute files not their own? Consider a case in which /pub/somedir and /home/alice/hello.mp3 are both on the same volume, say /dev/hda1 . If even one of hello.mp3's attribute files (or to be more precise, one of the files which inherit metadata from hello.mp3) is on the same mount subtree as somedir , then the restriction on hard-linking between files on different volumes is not sufficient to prevent the problems. So can we find an attribute file of hello.mp3 which might actually be on /dev/hda1 ? An id3 file derived automatically from hello.mp3 should be quite safe; its device file is hello.mp3 , just as hello.mp3 's device file is /dev/hda1 , so it should be in a different mount subtree to hello.mp3 . (But incidentally, this raises another question: if one of hello.mp3 's descendants is a mount point, what happens when alice types mv hello.mp3 hi.mp3 ?) By contrast, imagine that alice writes a short text file of information about hello.mp3. Clearly this is hello.mp3 metadata, so she saves the file in hello.mp3/+/info . info isn't automatically derived from mp3, so why wouldn't it just be another file on /dev/hda1 like hello.mp3 and somedir ? As to permissions, wasn't it the intention to use permissions files as a *replacement* for stat and friends, not just as a means of exposing stat through a file interface? If hello.mp3/+/permissions replaces stat and friends, then it's in the same position as hello.mp3/+/info . If it simply exposes then, then subfile metadata is a lot less interesting - for one thing, it doesn't make implementing different permissions systems any easier (the opposite, in fact). But even if ordinary directories can't hard-link to other files' attribute files, the problem of multiple inheritance of metadata still isn't fully solved. What if two children of hello.mp3/+/ have differe
