0006 FreeVxFS is a file system driver that support the VERITAS VxFS(TM)
0007 file system format. VERITAS VxFS(TM) is the standard file system
0008 of SCO UnixWare (and possibly others) and optionally available
0009 for Sunsoft Solaris, HP-UX and many other operating systems. However
0010 these particular OS implementations of vxfs may differ in on-disk
0011 data endianess and/or superblock offset. The vxfs module has been
0012 tested with SCO UnixWare and HP-UX B.10.20 (pa-risc 1.1 arch.)
0013 Currently only readonly access is supported and VxFX versions
0014 2, 3 and 4. Tests were performed with HP-UX VxFS version 3.
0015
0016 NOTE: the file system type as used by mount(1), mount(2) and
0017 fstab(5) is 'vxfs' as it describes the file system format, not
0018 the actual driver.
0019
0020 There is a userspace utility for HP-UX logical volumes which makes
0021 creating HP-UX logical volumes easy from HP-UX disk block device file
0022 or regular file with image of the disk. See:
0023 https://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-vxfs/

0025 To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be
0026 called freevxfs. If unsure, say N.
