Abstract
Hixosfs music is an extension of ext2 Linux filesystem, with additional features to easy accessing and categorizing musical files. Specially it extends the inode struct inside the Virtual file system, considerating as file proprieties meta information such as album, author, title related to the content of a musical file. Comparition have been done respect to the Linux file system in user space Musicmeshfs, the Linux ext2 xattr feature, and ad hoc user space programs for efficiently retriving multimedia data. Since Hixosfs music manages the musical tags at kernel level, it offers higher performances then the other solutions but with less flexibility.
