Re: HAMMER filesystem update - design document

(VI) Database files
HAMMER uses 64 bit keys internally and makes key-based files directly
available to userland. Key-based files are not regular files and do not
operate using a normal data offset space.
Interesting. What exactly are those database files used for? Is a
database file attached to each file to store ACLs, for example? Or can
it be used like btree(3)? Do they have their own namespace in the
filesystem?
Wow! I a am really looking forward to try out HAMMER!!!
