Writing Stackable Filesystems

摘要

Filesystem development need not be difficult. Using stackable filesystems, you can create new, useful and efficient filesystems quickly―all without changing kernels or existing filesystems. The examples in this article hopefully demonstrate the power of stacking, from which you gradually can build more complex filesystems. You can get the FiST software, documentation and many more examples from www.cs.sunysb.edu/～ezk/research/fist. Happy stacking.
