Ex-Googler creates Bcachefs, first Linux file system written specifically for solid state disks.
With so many working file systems already available, Linux users may ask why create a new file system?
File systems are important because provide the interface to the operating system for storing files on a disk.
There are a still a number of limitations of the new software, Overstreet pointed out.
For one, the file system requires about 20% of the disk to perform operations.
Overstreet has invited Linux developers to try it out to find bugs and also suggest any modifications.
