This repository is an experimental implementation of the Chord lookup service and the cooperative file system (CFS). The software is organized as follows:

chord/

• This directory implements the core of the chord lookup service. libchord.a implements the API defined in chord.h to maintain routing tables, add/remove nodes from the network, route simple queries. libchord also provides a node-to-node RPC service based on SFS asynchronous RPC.

dhash/

• DHash depends on chord and builds a replicated block store on the basic Chord primitive.

lsd/

• lsd is the Location Service Daemon. It instantiates the Chord and DHash layers and accepts requests from clients over a UNIX domain socket.

tools/

• testing and performance tools

svc/

• protocol files for the above programs

This software is experimental and under active development. Please send bug reports/fixes to [email protected].
