QRV FS: overcoming the biggest limitation
Currently, QRV FS (v1) has one very serious limitation: the maximum file size is 2 megabytes.
Version 2 of the filesystem will remedy that.

First binary program is executed from the QRV filesystem on disk.
Preparation for the filesystem-on-disk on full swing. This milestone is huge: MSI-X seems to be working. Some polishing is needed, though.
Stay tuned.
QRVFS v2 is now the Proper Filesystem™ too ;-) . Maximum file size now is 511 G.
It is readonly; it understands GPT partitions, and it's ready to be tested on real hardware (Unmatched).
That will be the v0.24 of our OS.
Now it feels like a Proper System.
The Big Kernel Lock (BKL) is going to be removed.
This is going to be, perhaps, one of the biggest architectural changes in the QNX 6.4 codebase. And the direction is the same as QNX 8 took.
Stay tuned.
