Plan 9 File System for Linux
README.md

What

v9fs is the code-name for the linux kernel client implementation of the Plan 9 remote file system protocol 9p. The original kernel port was documented in this paper, it later added support for virtio so that it could be used as a paravirtualized file system interface for KVM. Documentation for how to use v9fs with qemu/kvm can be found (here)[https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/9psetup], and there are also examples of how to use 9p as your root filesystem.

This Github group contains a mirror of the official kernel.org development trees for v9fs as well as mirrors of several of the more popular servers, as well as support repositories for testing and performance measurement.
