Question about 9p filesystem

[jcubic]

I've created basic code to enable using p9 file system with BrowserFS using existing v86 API, service worker the serve the files from IndexedDB via BrowserFS and generate the JSON. Here is the link to repo https://github.com/jcubic/v86-demo

but I'm not able to mount the fs:

/mnt% mount -t 9p host9p /mnt/9p                                                
mount: mounting host9p on /mnt/9p failed: No such file or directory 

I've tried to create mnt directory because it was missing also create the p9 directory but it keep showing error that file don't exists.

Are you using the Linux 3 image? Can you verify that the filesystem is not already mounted on /mnt/? (this is automatically done in /etc/profile).

Maybe the generated fs.json is broken?

[jcubic]

I'm using linux.iso what's the difference between linux and linux 3? Why there are two linux images?

[jcubic]

Ok, it's working with Linux 3 also had a bug in my Service worker, the names had slash at the beginning because I was not able to use path.basename.

@jcubic

I've created basic code to enable using p9 file system with BrowserFS using existing v86 API

Can you share your code?

[jcubic]

I think I've deleted the code from GitHub. Maybe I still have a copy.

[jcubic]

@lunu-bounir sorry, it seems that I've deleted the code, I've didn't realized that I've had this BrowserFS p9 implementation that no one created before.

And I deleted it because I was getting a lot of PR from bots to that repo with vulnerability fixes, and it was annoying.

[lunu-bounir]

@jcubic no problem. Thanks anyway.

the code deletion part was heartbreaking :(
