I accepted your not doing so, because the task description was very unspecific, and you were not really in a position to provide a schedule without discussing things first; but now that you have an idea what you will be actually working on, you should be able to come up with a rough schedule... I suggest you start with the server overriding mechanism, as it's the easier part, and there is less to discuss... -antrik-Hi,I think maybe I can set up multiple pfinets and modify glibc as the exercise and try to finish it next week. After that, I can go back and work on the mechanism for communication among different pfinet servers.Afterwards, I implement other mechanisms for the server overriding. So the rough schedule could be:today~June 13rd: the exercise. discuss the mechanism for communication among different pfinet servers. June 14th~July 14: implement the mechanism for communication among different pfinet servers and discuss the server overriding mechanism.July 15th~August 18: implement the server overriding mechanism.I hope I leave enough time for the second work (pfinet server communication).I have a question:antrik, you said someone had already implemented the BPF translator, but where is the code?I cannot find it in the CVS. Best, Zheng Da
Hi, I have already been able to run mutiple pfinet in my hurd.and I modified the glibc which now allows the user to override the default path for pfinet server.
The environment variable for the path of socket servers is "SOCK_SERV_PATH". It works.Another interesting thing is that when I ping from one pfinet server to another, I get the reply. Does it mean the two pfinets are already able to communicate with each other?
Back to my real work and I need to change the schedule.I will implement the server overriding mechanism. and I can make a choice between options, mainly from option 4 and 5. (4) Either all filesystem servers could provide a mechanism to modify the namespace they export to certain clients (5) proxies could be used that mirror the default namespace but override certain locations.
Here is my rough schedule:June 06~June 13: make a choice among all different options for server overriding mechanism. June 14~July 07: implement the server overriding mechanism and discuss about the mechanism for the communication among pfinet servers.
July 08~July 14: test the implementationJuly 14~August 11: implement the mechanism for pfinet server communication. continue testing the first part of work.
August 12~August 18: final test. Best, Zheng Da
