ReiserFS File-System Expected To Be Removed With Linux 6.13

[ayumu]

A filesystem driver has full access to the system regardless if its in userspace or kernel space, it can replace data from the filesystem being loaded by the kernel, including executables.

And that'll affect whoever is using the filesystem, which could be a single program.

However, a bug in a filesystem running inside the kernel, in supervisor mode, can compromise the entire system.

In my opinion it is a bad thing that filesystems get ever removed. At least reading should be possible forever so files can be copied from archived disk images / hard disks found years later.
