DragonFly imports FreeBSD driver for ext2 |
 |
The DragonFly BSD team has announced new driver, imported from FreeBSD will be used in the future to work with the ext2 Linux filesystem. The new driver will also support reading ext4: "The new ext2 will replace the existing sys/gnu/vfs/ext2fs in future, which is known to have lots of issues. This is already better than sys/gnu/vfs/ext2fs in many ways, but will keep it as an option for now as there seems to be htree dirents and/or vop_readdir related bugs. The new implementation supports ext3 htree dirents. Read support for ext4 extents which exists in FreeBSD ext2 isn't implemented yet (TODO). ACL/xattr are unsupported, and likely never will be. With exception of DragonFly VFS specific part that can't reuse FreeBSD code (vfsops, many vnops, bread/getblk/bio i/f difference, etc), the new ext2 is designed to be close to upstream as much as possible." |
