Hey Tom, nice to see you! Hope you're fine, and hope you had lots of
good food on the table during the holidays.
Building a user space file system is a good idea for lots of
reasons. But how?
By using a already existing library to do so... See below!
Here's such an API that can be implemented in about 610 lines of
code on Posix. I can' imagine it would be any harder on Windows
using native calls there.
I suggest you take a look at the Hurd's libdiskfs/libtrivfs/libnetfs
libraries, no need to reinvent the wheel. ;)
Your suggest API misses alot of functionality from the looks, like
permission handling. I didn't take a closer look on it, since there
is already such an API which we can use, and should use, namley what
the GNU Hurd provides.
Happy hacking.
