I think it would be a bad idea beacuse I have integrated Arla into OpenBSD and libkafs in OpenBSD is almost completly rewritten (we now have a real syscall and don't have to assume that we got 210 in the lkm installation). But you can steal libkafs from OpenBSD 2.3. It should work without modifications on FreeBSD. //art To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-afs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-afs Mon Feb 8 12:29:43 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA26538 for freebsd-afs-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:29:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-afs@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from fledge.watson.org (FLEDGE.RES.CMU.EDU [128.2.93.229]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA26531 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:29:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from robert@cyrus.watson.org) Received: from fledge.watson.org (robert@fledge.pr.watson.org [192.0.2.3]) by fledge.watson.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA15024; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 15:29:35 -0500 (EST) Date: Mon, 8 Feb 1999 15:29:35 -0500 (EST) From: Robert Watson X-Sender: robert@fledge.watson.org Reply-To: Robert Watson To: Artur Grabowski cc: Chris Csanady , freebsd-afs@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: arla 0.21..

Art, Currently the Coda kernel code is integrated into FreeBSD; how similar is your xfs support to the venus code in the FreeBSD kernel and the protocol they speak? It would be great if they spoke the same protocol, reducing the requirements for additional stuff in the kernel, especially given how similar they are. It would also get more people working on the code and correcting bugs, improving caching, etc. Robert N Watson robert@fledge.watson.org http://www.watson.org/~robert/ PGP key fingerprint: 03 01 DD 8E 15 67 48 73 25 6D 10 FC EC 68 C1 1C Carnegie Mellon University http://www.cmu.edu/ TIS Labs at Network Associates, Inc. http://www.tis.com/ SafePort Network Services http://www.safeport.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-afs" in the body of the message
