* WHAT IS CIFSD?
================================================================================
CIFSD is an opensource In-kernel CIFS/SMB3 server created by Namjae Jeon for
Linux Kernel. It's an implementation of SMB/CIFS protocol in kernel space for
sharing files and IPC services over network. Initially the target is to provide
improved file I/O performances, but the bigger goal is to have some new features
which are much easier to develop and maintain inside the kernel and expose the
layers fully. Directions can be attributed to sections where SAMBA is moving to
few modules inside the kernel to have features like RDMA(Remote direct memory
access) to work with actual performance gain.

================================================================================
* Under PFIF
================================================================================
This code was developed in participation with the Protocol Freedom
Information Foundation.
