The Linux 2.6-compatible v9fs software implements a 9P2000 protocol for sharing resources.
One of the standout features of v9fs is its compatibility with Plan 9 file servers. It also allows for the mounting of synthetic file systems from Plan 9 applications (which can be found in the plan9port project). This means that you can easily integrate v9fs into your existing development workflow.
In addition, v9fs includes kernel modules for both Linux 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels. This ensures that you'll be able to use it no matter which kernel version you're running.
Recently, v9fs has undergone some improvements. The latest release features more responses to LKML comments, fixes to transport, and the addition of an fd transport method. It has also been fully merged with Linux 2.6.13.
Overall, v9fs is a reliable and versatile resource sharing protocol that's worth considering if you're in need of these capabilities for your Linux development projects.
