Homepage:
(not yet finished), download at
Description
fsfipi: A framework supporting a cascade of filters, which modify the
behaviour of a filesystem. Each filter uses the same interface for the
higher level (i. e. the requests, what operations this filesystem shall
do) and for the lower level interface (performing the file operations).
Only the lowest level filter uses actual system calls to store files on
the real file system (localfs) or there is a possibility of making sshfs-
like lowest level filter. The only highest level filter now is
fuse_interface, which implements a fuse filesystem daemon and sends the
requests to the lower level filter.
vaves: a filter for this framework, implementing a very configurable
versioning file system.

Author:
Joel_Yliluoma
Homepage:
Description
Cromfs is a compressed read-only filesystem, similar to Cramfs and

It splits each file into fixed-size blocks and compresses the blocks
together in larger clusters, so that blocks from different files are
compressed together for smaller size. Directories, inodes and block lists
are also compressed. In some cases, it beats Squashfs by a factor of four
in terms of compression power. On the flip side, it is noticeably slower
than its peers, and requires more RAM.
