Hi,
We are a group of 3 students doing their graduation in computer science and are interested in contributing to the clustering capability in linux. We have been reading about dragonfly BSD as a strong contender for clustering OS's. The 2 notable implementation in kernel space of dragonfly BSD are the syslink protocol basically which looks after the resource management in the cluster and hence keeps the cluster glued together and the cache coherence management which allows a number of processes running in different systems to have read and write to different portions of the same file at the same time. We were thinking of implementing the same feature set in linux kernel . We would be thankful if we can have some suggestions and advice from your side.
Thanks and Regards,
Mehul
