Hi All, Yes sure. Porting VFS operation from FreeBSD is difficult here(in case of Unionfs) than I expected as to some extent VFS interface differs in Solaris . And Since this particular FS is a layer between the different FS drivers and the VFS , the exact fit is crucial. The VFS operation s intended to a particular FS driver must be passed on to that FS driver seamlessly . That's a difficult taks I am doing at this moment. Its not like ordinary FS where in we write FS driver and try to fit it with the VFS interface, in this case design (How FS driver fits with VFS interface ?) dictated by VFS operations at top level .But in the case of UNIONFS , we are heavily constrained by what we can do ,on top layer (VFS) and at the bottom layer (different FS drivers , note that we have N-Way Fanout here ! ) , ( something similar to jigsaw puzzle :-) ). But , I will manage it. It would be a great FS development exercise - "getting to know Solaris VFS thoroughly" .
