LKL ("Linux Kernel as a Library") is a special + "architecture" of the full Linux kernel that builds as a + userspace library on various platforms, including &os;. One + application of such a library is using Linux's filesystem drivers + to implement a FUSE backend.

+ +

fusefs-lkl's lklfuse binary is such a FUSE + filesystem. It can mount ext4/3/2, XFS, and + BTRFS read-write, using the native drivers from + Linux.

+ +

The sysutils/fusefs-lkl port may now be installed from + packages or ports, providing access to these filesystems on + &os; via FUSE.
