Linux kernel provides vfs for the various physical filesystems.The profit we get from the VFS is just the standard interface it provides such as read and write? Can we implement a user space filesystem which is actually a library?I think it will be faster than kernel space filesystem through the vfs layer. Any suggestions or commnets?
