Ext3 file system support

This project is trying to implement support of second and third extended file systems (ext2 and ext3) for OpenSolaris. Our driver is written from scratch and does not contain any GPL code. 

Project status

Driver is now able to:

  • mount and clearly unmount ext2 or ext3 filesystem
  • browse directories
  • read, write, remove or rename files, links and directories
  • check and set file's attributes or owner
  • create link, symlink, file, directory etc
  • support file systems larger then 2GiB include 32-bit UIDs and GIDs

Things to do:

  • improve stability
  • improve performance (e.g. implement directory indexing)
  • add support for extended attributes
  • add support for SPARC-based machines
