Make bindfs buildable as kernel module

Open Harvie opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

Ultimate goal would be to write bindfs in such manner that would enable it to be compiled as both, fuse binary and linux kernel module while using common code base...

Just idea :-) But it may improve performance...

If this will not be possible, then fork may be interresting.

I don't realistically see myself doing this any time soon, but I'd be happy to review a PR for it if someone really wants this feature.

I'm not sure how feasible this is to do with a single codebase since the kernel's filesystem interfaces are probably significantly different from userspace. Do you know of any FUSE filesystem that takes this approach?
