<p>LKL (&quot;Linux Kernel as a Library&quot;) is a special
&quot;architecture&quot; of the full Linux kernel that builds as a
userspace library on various platforms, including &os;. One
application of such a library is using Linux's filesystem drivers
to implement a FUSE backend.</p>
<p>fusefs-lkl's <tt>lklfuse</tt> binary is such a FUSE
filesystem. It can mount <tt>ext4/3/2</tt>, <tt>XFS</tt>, and
<tt>BTRFS</tt> read-write, using the native drivers from
Linux.</p>
<p>The <tt>sysutils/fusefs-lkl</tt> port may now be installed from
packages or ports, providing access to these filesystems on
&os; via FUSE.</p>
