VENTI(2)                      System Calls Manual                     VENTI(2)



NAME
       venti - archival storage server

SYNOPSIS
       #include <u.h>
       #include <libc.h>
       #include <venti.h>

DESCRIPTION
       The  Venti  library  provides  support  for  writing  Venti servers and
       clients.  Other manual pages describe the library functions in detail.

       Venti-cache(2)  describes  a  simple  in-memory  block  cache  to  help
       clients.

       Venti-conn(2)  describes  routines for manipulating network connections
       between Venti clients and servers.  Venti-client(2) and venti-server(2)
       describe routines for writing clients and servers on top of these.

       Venti-fcall(2)  describes  the  C representation of Venti protocol mes‐
       sages and data structures.  It also describes routines that convert be‐
       tween the C representation and the network and disk representations.

       Venti-file(2)  describes  routines  for writing clients that manipulate
       Venti file trees (see venti(6)).

       Venti-log(2) describes routines to access in-memory log buffers as well
       as the logging that is done automatically by the library.

       Venti-mem(2) describes wrappers around the canonical malloc(2) routines
       that abort on error.

       Venti-packet(2) describes routines for manipulating zero-copy chains of
       data buffers.

       Venti-zero(2)  describes  routines  to  zero  truncate  and zero extend
       blocks (see venti(6)).
