<p>The FreeBSD FAT implementation, msdosfs, offers scope for a number of
projects:</p>
<ul>
<li>General cleanup.</li>
<li>Introduce appropriate locking to make the file system operate without
the Giant lock (MPSAFE).</li>
</ul>
<p>It is unclear to what extent the last of these items, arguably the most

GEOM, and VM.</p>
<p><strong>Requirements</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Strong C programming skills.</li>
<li>Familiarity with concurrent programming techniques.</li>
<li>Familiarity with FAT file system layout.</li>
<li>Familiarity with virtual file system and virtual memory.</li>
