[Gluster-devel] Glusterfs Protocol

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Finally after a long discussion we arrived at a simple and strong protocol for glusterfs.
All the transfer between nodes will happen at low level sockets instead of initial design of FILE *.


---- snip ----
All value in bytes. '\n' is field seperator.
Field:<field_length>

==================
"Block Start\n":12
Type:8
Code:8
Name:32
BlockSize:32
Block:<BlockSize>
"Block End\n":10
==================
