Hello Ketor,

About 1 more years ago, I need a free DFS can be used in AIX
environment as a tiered storage solution for Bank DC, that why the
project.
This project just port the CephFS in Linux kernel to AIX kernel(maybe
RBD in future), so it's a kernel mode AIX cephfs.
But I have multiple projects at hand now, so the AIX cephfs project is
in pending status... It's open, anyone can make changes from this
project if he want.
