Possibly a missunderstanding on my part. I do not know how it works at |
8 |
such a low level, I am not a kernel programmer. |

I was thinking that some of the features that comes with reiser4 doesn't |
11 |
belong in the filesystem but at a higher level, on top of all |
12 |
filesystems. Thus I drew the conclusion vfs was the right place. |

1. The ability to open a directory as a file. |
14 |
2. The ability to execute a plugin as a filter when opening a |
15 |
file(/directory). |
16 |
A layer in between? |
