Hi Ricardo,

Just as an FYI... there is an opensolaris project we just started, FUSE on Solaris, that you might be interested in watching. http://opensolaris.org/os/project/fuse/.

How shpuld this deal with the incompatibilities of the Linux FS interface and the Solaris FS interface?
Well... we are using the freeBSD port of FUSE as a starting point. freeBSD is similar to Solaris in that it uses vnode ops and vfs ops(although named slightly differently). Linux has structures for both file operations and inode operations, which Solaris and freeBSD combine as vnode ops.

So, this will have to be dealt with, but we are starting from a more compatible source than the linux FUSE.
What we need for OpenSolaris is a project that makes the native Solaris Fs interface available at user space.
Certainly a possibility. Not in scope for this project though, at least for the initial port.

thanks,
sarah
