- pvfs2-design-storageint: outlines the Trove interface, which
is a low storage device interface used by PVFS2.
- pvfs2-design-flow: outlines the flow interface. Flows are
used to represent transfers that involve both network and storage.
It also brings together scheduling, physical distribution, and I/O request
processing for this environment. The default flow implementation
uses BMI and Trove as underlying access mechanisms.
- pvfs2-design-job: covers the high level glue layer that
pulls the flow, BMI, trove, and scheduling interfaces together
into a coherent framework.
- pvfs2-design-concepts: general definitions and overview of
PVFS2.
