xv6 filesystem study and small kernel FS project
A personal study project revisiting the xv6 teaching operating system's filesystem, then studying other filesystems and the VFS virtual filesystem layer, with a possible goal of implementing a very small filesystem in kernel space as a hobby, explicitly unrelated to the author's work.

“Going back to xv6 to re-study its filesystem, and then study other filesystems, and then study VFS the virtual layer on top of filesystems, and then maybe implement a very small FS in kernel space. And of course it has nothing to do with my work.”
