Summary : An user-space virtual filesystem implementation
|
Description :
The Plastic File System is an LD_PRELOAD module for manipulating what the file system looks like for programs. This allows virtual file systems to exist in user space, without kernel hacks or modules.
A number of filters exist for a number of different use-cases, including
chroot - simulate the effects of a chroot call dos - simulate a DOS 8.3 filesystem downcase - make file names appear in lower-case log - transparently log file system access (like strace) nocase - make filenames case-insensitive shortname - simulate file systems with shorter filenames smartlink - expand environment variables in symbolic links titlecase - make filenames appear in title-case upcase - make filenames appear in upper-case viewpath - union all the directory trees in a view path (unionfs)
These filters may be piped on into the next to form powerful filter combinations.
It is possible to extend PlasticFS with loadable file system filter modules from shared object files.
