AFS using FUSE and gRPC

FUSE Installation

Please go through FUSE for installation guide and understanding how it works.

gRPC Installation:

Follow these steps to install gRPC lib using cmake: https://grpc.io/docs/languages/cpp/quickstart/#setup. :warning: make sure to limit the processes by passing number(e.g. 4) during make -j command.

for example, instead of make -j use make -j 4

Build

Config Setup:

  1. Create cache_pathin root mode.
  2. Update cache_path on client side.
  3. Create server_storage_pathin root mode.
  4. Update server storage path on server side.
  5. mkdir -p cmake/build
  6. pushd cmake/build
  7. cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$MY_INSTALL_DIR ../..
  8. make -j 4

Execute

  1. In root mode, run afs_server in one terminal
  2. In root mode, run fuse-client by passing appropriate fuse arguments as shown below.
./fuse-client -o allow_other -o auto_unmount -f /mount_dir

Clean

execute make clean from cmake/build directory.

Misc

There are some flags that we have inserted in our code to test various crash scenarios and enable logs. There is also configurable buffer size for read/write/stream operations.
