Abstract: This paper describes a C toolkit for easily extending the Unix file system. The toolkit exposes the NFS interface, allowing new file systems to be implemented portably at user level. A number of programs have implemented portable, user-level file systems. However, they have been plagued by low-performance, deadlock, restrictions on file system structure, and the need to reboot after software errors. The toolkit makes it easy to avoid the vast majority of these problems. Moreover, the toolkit... (Update)
