+DPDK File System (DFS)
+======================
+
+This DPDK library provides a pseudo file system much like Linux /proc or /system
+file systems, but this one is a userspace file system. Allowing applications to
+create and design file system directories and files using the FUSE 3.2
+https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse code.
+
+The libfuse library can be installed via the Linux distro packaging system or
+you can compile the code from the git repo above.
+
+The DFS also requires json library called ``Jansson`` which can be installed via
+your Linux distro packaging system or from https://github.com/akheron/jansson website.
+Version 2.11.0 is the version used on my Ubuntu 18.04 LTS system.
+
+The kernel needs to support FUSE to use the libfuse library and most currently
+Linux kernels and systems do support FUSE. For FreeBSD and Windows a port has
+been created for these two OSes, but they are at different completeness.
+
+The DFS library creates layer on top of the libfuse APIs to similfy the
+developers design by providing cleaner APIs and not requiring the developers
+to understand the FUSE design.
+
+.. note::
+
+    Make sure you enable 'user_allow_other' in /etc/fuse.conf file.
+
+    A set of signals (HUP, INT, TERM, SEGV and PIPE) are set up to be caught
+    these signals and bring down the FUSE file system by removing the mount
+    point and temporay files. The PIPE signal is captured and ignored.
+
+Advantages
+----------
+
+- Provides a simple userspace file system for information and configuration.
+- Simple abstraction layer on top of FUSE to reduce learning curve and code.
+- Able to dynamicly add/remove files and directories.
+- A simple API using a data struct to create the file.
+- Able to read and write files in the file system to get information and to configure
+- Allows applications on top of DPDK to create its own directory/file tree.
+- Able to access the files from Linux command line, scripts or any other method.
+- Orchestration can access the file to configure applications and DPDK with out having to build a communication path to the DPDK/App process.
+
+The libfuse design has two levels of APIs 'lowlevel' and 'highlevel'. For DFS
+the lowlevel APIs were used for a bit more performance, but mostly because the
+lowlevel APIs provide better control for DFS.
+
+In DFS the developer needs only add files and/or directories plus manage the
+simple event callbacks in his code. The files/directories within DFS are
+defined at runtime, but FUSE/DFS also allow for modification during runtime.
+
+To make the developer job easier a the DFS system calls back to the developer
+code with simple operations e.g. INIT, OPEN, INFO, READ, WRITE, RELEASE.
+
+The developer routine only needs to act on a operation it when it is required as
+all except the INIT operation is optional. If the developer does something
+special in say the OPEN he may need to also handle the RELEASE operation to
+cleanup any items he needed for the open.
+
+The READ and WRITE operations are normally handled in the layers below DFS and
+the developer can ignore these unless he utilizes something special. In a number
+of files in the librte_dfs directory you will notice the use ``dfs_tmpfile_create`` and
+``dfs_tmpfile_release``. These routines help create temporay files to hold generated
+data. Please look at these files to see how to use these APIs.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+By enabling the define ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_DFS=y`` you can enable the filesystem.
+The DFS library is optional and is not required for normal operations of DPDK.
+Currently the DPDK Filesystem is disabled in the mk/common_base file. To enable
+DFS copy one of the config files e.g. defconfig_x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc to say
+defconfig_x86_64-dfs-linuxapp-gcc then edit the file and add ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_DFS=y``
+to the file. Then use this config files to build and run DFS.
+
+To have the application create the filesystem for the application a EAL argument
+needs to be placed on the commandline before and user arguments ``--``. The new
+command line argument is ``--dfs``, which if left off will *not* create the filesystem.
+
+If the ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_DFS=n`` then the ``--dfs`` option has no effect. The lib/librte_dfs
+directory will be built, but only to resolve possible defines in the application if configured
+to use DFS. Not all of the functions are allowed if the application is built with DFS disabled.
+
+The functions currently allowed to exist are ``dfs_is_configured()``, ``dfs_is_enabled()`` and
+``dfs_set_defaults()``.
+
+The DFS code will create a default mount point for the filesystem with a root
+directory called ``/dpdk/<prgname>-<pid>``, then using the application name 'prgname'
+to complete the path for the application. If more then one DPDK application is
+running then each will be created in the ``/dpdk`` directory. The ``/dpdk`` directory
+will be create if it does not exist.
+
+The DFS mount point can be shown using the ``mount`` command and look for the
+``/dpdk/<prgname>-<pid>`` mount point. The mount point needs to be un-mounted using
+something like ``sudo umount <prgname>`` command if needed. The DFS code will attempt to
+remove the mount as long as the application can terminate normally, which includes using
+signal handlers.
+
+In the ``example/dfs/main.c`` file you can set the name of the application and
+the mount point via the ``dfs_set_defaults(const char *name, const char *mountpoint, _sig_handler_t sig_handle)`` API.
+The mount point will default to ``/dpdk/`` unless the above function is given before ``rte_eal_init()`` is called.
+The application name will also default to *dpdk* as the name of the directory.
+
+You can retrieve the ``struct dfs`` pointer using the call ``dfs_get_instance()`` if needed
+for other calls like ``dfs_destroy(struct dfs *dfs)``.
+
+By using the ``--dfs`` command line option the application can use the default DPDK
+file system files and/or create his own files/directories using the DFS APIs.

+
+The file above is the 'C' code to create and handle the rawdev DFS directory and
+any sub-files or directories. Lets skip to bottom of the file to ``dfs_raw_init()``
+routine. The ``dfs_rawdev_init()`` does only one thing call the ``dfs_add_tree()``
+function create/add the entries in the ``rawdev_tree[]`` structure.
+
+Notice the ``u_dir()`` and ``u_file`` entries, these are macros to help create
+each entry of the given type. Directory entries just have a name of the directory,
+but the files have a ``name``, function pointer, access mode and unique ID value within
+the directory it sits.
+
+Note the order of creating directories and files must be done correctly. When you
+define a directory e.g. ``u_dir("foo")`` the next set of ``u_file()`` entries will
+be placed in the ``foo`` directory.
+
+If you need to add a file or directory to a different location just specify the
+path in the name e.g. ``"../file"`` or ``"/mempool/newfile"`` will work
+with directories too.
+
+The unique ID value is any 32 bit number defined by the developer and is used
+when the developer uses a single function for a number of files to help identify
+the file to be accessed.
+
+In this case it is set to zero by default. The ``count`` file is read-only and
+the function to handle the file is called ``rawdev_info``. The function is called
+with a ``node pointer`` and ``operation value``. The ``node pointer`` is the
+``struct dfs_node`` and contains information about the node like type or size, ...
+
+Now look in the ``rawdev_info()`` function a ``static char count[24];`` variable is
+defined to hold the number of rawdev devices. We have a number types of operations
+that can be performed on a file.
+
+* DFS_FILE_INIT - Called only when the file/node is created.
+* DFS_FILE_INFO - Called when the FUSE file system needs to know something about the file like size or access mode.
+* DFS_FILE_RELEASE - Called when the FUSE file system no longer needs the file. This does not mean it is to be removed only that FUSE decided to stop tracking the file for now.
+* DFS_FILE_OPEN - Called when the FUSE file is opened (optional)
+* DFS_FILE_READ - Called just before the file is to be read, which movement of the data is handled by the lower layers ``dfs_oper.c``
+* DFS_FILE_WRITE - Called when the file has been written to or modified.
+
+Notice in the ``DFS_FILE_INIT`` section the ``count`` string is filled in using
+snprintf() and the value from the ``rte_rawdev_count()`` routine. The function
+to initialize the node/file is called ``dfs_node_init()`` passing the node pointer,
+memory buffer and two others -1 and zero. The ``-1`` being passed is to inform the
+routine to use strlen() on the memory address ``count`` to determine its size. The
+last value is zero meaning the max file size is zero enforcing the file is read-only.
+
+The file size will be the length of the string in ``count`` array. You can pass
+the real size here or give a max file size if you allow writing into the file.
+
+You could have used the ``OPEN`` operation to retrieve the value and recreate the
+string each time the file is opened, but in this case the value does not change
+and we can setup the string at ``INIT`` time.

+     * @param ms
+     *   The max file size. If 0 then not writeable, >0 then the max amount of data
+     *   that is able to be pushed in the file.

+    dfs_node_init(struct dfs_node *node, void *p, ssize_t s, size_t ms)
+    {
+        node->file_fd = -1;
+        if (s < 0)
+                node->file_size = strlen(p);
+        else
+                node->file_size = (size_t)s;
+        node->file_data = p;
+        node->file_offset = 0;
+        node->maxfile_size = ms;
+    }
+
+The ``node->file_data`` pointer will point to the ``count`` array and the lower layers
+will operate on that buffer using the ``node->file_size`` value. Notice the
+``node->file_fd`` this file descriptor value can point to an opened file instead
+of a buffer and the lower DFS layer will handle access to this fd.
+
+Look in ``dfs_mempool.c`` in function ``info_file`` it will create
+temporay file containing the json output, which the FUSE layer will read to
+obtain the information about the mempool structures.
+
+The method is used on the ``info`` file in the mempool directory and the ``dump``
+uses the same method with different output format, which redirects the
+``rte_mempool_list_dump(FILE *f)`` output to a tempory file referenced by the
+``node->file_fd``.
+
+The tempory files are created in the ``/tmp`` directory and then ``unlink`` is used
+to make them invisiable plus when the application exits the files are removed.

+
+The main function in the above code for DFS is the ``dfs_set_defaults()``
+function call passing the program name, a NULL pointer for the base mount point and
+the function pointer to a signal handler if needed. The DFS system only handles signals
+``SIGINT`` and ``SIGTERM``.
+
+The base mount point being NULL will use the default location ``/dpdk``. The default
+mount point is ``basename(argv[0])`` or program name. If the ``--dfs`` is on the
+command line the DFS will be created during ``rte_eal_init()`` call.
+
+In the example command lines below if you use the example/dfs application the
+<prgname> will be 'dfs' followed by the process ID number.

+Install notes for Ubuntu 18.04 Linux
+------------------------------------
+
+The DFS support in DPDK needs the Jansson JSON library and libfuse to build.
+The github repo: https://github.com/akheron/jansson
+The github repo: https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse
+
+but you should install the library using
+apt-get or yum or whatever means you have to install distro libraries.
+
+I am using Ubuntu 18.04 and include the libraries via:
+'sudo apt-get install libjansson-dev'
+'sudo apt-get install libfuse-dev'
+
+Build DPDK as you normally would, I use:
+
+$ export RTE_SDK=`pwd`
+$ export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
+
+$ make install T=${RTE_TARGET} -j // You will get an error about not being able to install, it is OK
+
+Then
+
+$ sudo mkdir /dpdk
+$ sudo chmod 755 /dpdk
+
+I created a dpdk-user to set an owner to the files.
+
+$ sudo adduser --disabled-login --no-create-home --disabled-password dpdk-user
+$ sudo chown dpdk-user /dpdk
+$ sudo chgrp dpdk-user /dpdk
+
+$ cd examples/dfs
+$ make -j
+
+To run the example:
+
+$ sudo -E ./build/dfs -l 1   // You can add more lcores, but they will do nothing.
+
+$ cd /dpdk/dfs-<pid>  // This is the location of the FUSE filesystem.
