RedoxFS

This is the default filesystem of Redox OS inspired by ZFS and adapted to a microkernel architecture.

(It's a replacement for TFS)

Current features:

Compatible with Redox and Linux (FUSE)
Copy-on-write
Data/metadata checksums
Transparent encryption
Standard Unix file attributes
File/directory size limit up to 193TiB (212TB)
File/directory quantity limit up to 4 billion per 193TiB (2^32 - 1 = 4294967295)
MIT licensed
Disk encryption fully supported by the Redox bootloader, letting it load the kernel off an encrypted partition.

Being MIT licensed, RedoxFS can be bundled on GPL-licensed operating systems (Linux, for example).

cargo install redoxfs

You can also build RedoxFS from this repository.

If you are on Linux you need root permission to acess block devices (storage), but it's recommended to run RedoxFS as rootless.

To do that you need to configure your storage device permission to your user with the following command:

sudo setfacl -m u:your-username:rw /path/to/disk

redoxfs /path/to/disk /path/to/mount
