The Departure distribution aims to provide components and libraries to implement and deliver filesystem access in the L4 Runtime Environment. In particular, it acts as a research and testing vehicle for implementations of demand-paged files provided by filesystems.
Reference topics:
Client Library - convenience functions and structures to access filesystem objects
Components - server objects exposed at the system level that support filesystem access
Server Library - abstractions to expose and manage access to filesystems
Mechanism details:
Filesystem Access - mechanisms within filesystem servers to manage filesystem resources and content
Paging - the mechanism by which filesystem content is provided for use by client programs
Program Loading - the mechanism by which programs are loaded
