Folks - Several people have vocalized interest in porting ZFS to operating systems other than solaris. While our 'mentoring' bandwidth may be small, I am hoping to create a common forum where people could share their experiences and ideas about how to effectively port ZFS and ease the ongoing maintenance burden. To that end, I started with this page: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/porting/ Which gives some guidelines about what I think would be a reasonable way of attacking a port of ZFS. While not quite a WiKi, if folks are actively working a port, feel free to email me (or one of the other ZFS community leaders) and we'll make you a leader as well so you can edit this page and share experiences, link to your efforts, etc.
Cool resource. I'm finding it useful. :) Quick question: it says on the current page: "It has the convenient attribute that the kernel-specific code has already been factored out as zfs_context.c, and should be relatively simple to port." Minor question : It says on the page " However, there is no zfs_context.c (as far as opengrok can tell me). Did you mean zfs_context.h?
If there is enough interest, it may also make sense to create a discussion forum strictly for detailed questions about ZFS code that may not interest the community at large. If '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' were created, would this be beneficial to anyone?
This would interest me as well. +1 from me (if my vote counts). -- Regards, Jeremy _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
