Summary : Read-only, license friendly, FUSE based btrfs implementation
URL : https://github.com/adam900710/btrfs-fuse
License : GPLv2 and MIT
Description : This is a read-only btrfs implementation using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace).
:
: Although btrfs is already in mainline Linux kernel, there are still use-cases
: for such read-only btrfs implementation:
: - Educational purpose: let new developers get a quick way to learn how a
: complex and modern filesystem works;
: - For certain bootloaders: certain bootloaders need code base compatible with
: their license;
: - As a last resort method for subpage/multipage support: currently (v5.16-rc)
: the Linux kernel can only support sectorsize == pagesize , and 4K sectorsize
: with 64K page size; thus this project can act as a last resort method to read
: data from filesystem with unsupported sectorsize.
