Abstract This thesis describes preparation for porting as well aw porting itself of RedirFS Linux kernel module to FreeBSD. Basic differences between Linux and FreeBSD kernels are de- scribed as well as differences in implementation of the Virtual Filesystem, crucial part for RedirFS. Further there are described possibilities and different approaches to implemen- tation RedirFS functionality to FreeBSD. Then, the possibilities are evaluated and ideal approach is proposed. Next chapters introduces erquired functionality of the new module as well as its solutions. Then the implementation details are describet so the reader can very well understand how the new module works and how the required functionality is implemented into the module.

  • BSD Based Systems
    Pregled BSD sistema I projekata Glavne BSD grane FreeBSD Homepage: http://www.freebsd.org/ FreeBSD je Unix-like slobodni operativni sistem koji vodi poreklo iz AT&T UNIX-a preko Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) grane kroz 386BSD i 4.4BSD. Radi na procesorima kompatibilnim sa Intel x86 familijom procesora, kao I na DEC Alpha, UltraSPARC procesorima od Sun Microsystems, Itanium (IA-64), AMD64 i PowerPC procesorima. Radi I na PC-98 arhitekturi. Podrska za ARM i MIPS arhitekture je trenutno u razvoju. Početkom 1993. godine Jordan K. Hubbard, Rod Grimes i Nate Williams su pokrenuli projekat čiji je cilj bio rešavanje problema koji su postojali u principima razvoja Jolitzovog 386BSD-a. Posle konsultovanja sa tadašnjim korisnicima sistema, uspostavljeni su principi i smišljeno je ime - FreeBSD. Pre nego što je konkretan razvoj i počeo, Jordan Hubbard je predložio je firmi Walnut Creek CDROM (danas BSDi) da pripreme distribuiranje FreeBSD-a na CD-ROM-ovima. Walnut Creek CDROM su prihvatili ideju, ali i obezbedili (tada potpuno nepoznatom) projektu mašinu na kojoj će biti razvijan i brzu Internet konekciju. Bez ove pomoći teško da bi FreeBSD bio razvijen u ovolikoj meri i ovolikom brzinom kao što jeste. Prva distribucija FreeBSD-a na CD-ROM-ovima (i naravno na netu) bila je FreeBSD 1.0, objavljena u decembru 1993. godine. Bila je zasnovana na Berkeley-evoj 4.3BSD-Lite ("Net/2") traci, a naravno sadržala je i komponente 386BSD-a i mnoge programe Free Software Foundation (fondacija besplatnog- slobodnog softvera). Nakon što je Novell otkupio UNIX od AT&T-a, Berkeley je morao da prizna da Net/2 traka sadrži velike delove UNIX koda.

  • Freesbie - a Code Walkthrough and a Case Study
    FreeSBIE - A code walkthrough and a case study Matteo Riondato <rionda@gufi.org>, Massimiliano Stucchi <max@gufi.org> October 11, 2004 1 Introduction FreeSBIE is a LiveCD based on the FreeBSD operating system developed by an Italian group of people, and supported mainly by the Italian FreeBSD Users Group, known as GUFI. The first release (1.0) was released on April 15th, 2004, and has already been downloaded almost 20.000 times. But FreeSBIE is not only an ISO file you can download from one of our mirrors, it is also a way to create your very own, fully customized, LiveCD. In this paper, we’re going to depict how the FreeSBIE provided by the team can accomplish the task of letting everybody become a Release Engineer on his own. 2 The GUFI The Italian FreeBSD Users Group is a small group of people whose aim is to spread the word about FreeBSD in Italy. It is composed of 15 people making up the staff, working together to keep the mailing lists and the IRC channel in good state. The main event for the group is GUFICon, having place every year around the end of September. This time it was in Milan on October 2 and 3. 3 The beginning The project was started by Davide "dave" D’amico, in order to fulfill the need for a LiveCD based on FreeBSD. There already was a solution around, created by a Brazilian group, but it wasn’t as flexible as dave needed. He brought the project on and found help form Dario "SaturNero" Freni initially, and from the whole GUFI, in a couple of months.
