OVLFS: LIST OF DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTS

• BUGS

  Bugs found during implementation and testing that have been, or need to be, addressed.

• INPROGRESS

  The current status of items that are under development at the current time.

• ISSUES

  Items of concern for the author that affect the entire concept and implementation of the ovlfs.

• NOTES

  Miscellaneous notes made during development. Interesting reading for filesystem developers, especially if they want to laugh at the author ;-).

• OTHER_INFO

  List of information that the ovlfs needs to maintain that other filesystems do not keep. This file was created in response to an idea to use an existing filesystem driver as a Storage Method. The items listed prevent the use of such a filesystem driver as a Storage Method.

• OVL_STG_EXAMPLE.c

  A skeleton source file, or template, for a new Storage Method.

• REQUIREMENTS

  A list of requirements for implementation. As of this writing, requirements for the VFS filesystem interface and the Storage Method operations have been documented.

• STATUS

  Some status items. Not much here, at least not yet. Most of the status has been tracked as updates to the TODO file.

• StorageOps

  A brief analysis of the Storage Method concept. Used to drive the original design of the Storage Method functionality.

• SUBPROJECTS

  A list and description of major areas of work that the author is working on or wants to work on.

• TODO

  List of items discovered during implementation and testing that need to be done.

• TROUBLE_SHOOTING
