I have been pondering the possibility of porting filesystems back and forth between BSD and Linux. Could someone shed some light on whether porting a BSD-supported filesystem to Linux or vice-versa is fundamentally possible? I think it is, but I wonder if there is something missing from my understanding. What are the issues involved? Specifically, I have been looking at the Union FS, but more generally, what porting issues are involved. Applications are easy from both directions...what about a fs? By the way, I use both.
