An implementation of nfs4j's VirtualFileSystem interface which is based on Linux's open-by-handle API.
The vfs4j uses Java 22 Foreign Function and Memory API, which requires additional JVM options.
$ sudo java --enable-preview --enable-native-access=ALL-UNNAMED \
-jar target/vfs4j-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar /directory/to/export /path/to/export/file
The exports file is compatible with the standard /etc/exports file format.
VFS4J uses the linux kernel model where git is not only the source repository, but also the way to track contributions and copyrights.
Each submitted patch must have a "Signed-off-by" line. Patches without this line will not be accepted.
The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify the below:
