a while (mostly because AFAIK I'm the only person actually using this code...).
The code in SVN uses BSD make since that makes my life as a developer much

easier; I have a "make publish" target which creates POSIX Makefiles to go
into a tarball.
kivaloo-lbs is a logging block store -- it takes "APPEND", "READ", and "FREE"

requests over a socket and writes/reads/deletes data from local disk.
kivaloo-kvlds is a key-value store -- it takes "SET" and "DELETE" requests, plus
several conditional variants, as well as "GET" and "RANGE" requests. Again, it
accepts requests over a socket; but it doesn't do any disk I/O itself -- rather,
it connects to a kivaloo-lbs for that.
kivaloo-mux is a multiplexer; if you want multiple clients to be able to talk to
the same kivaloo-kvlds, tell kivaloo-mux to talk to kivaloo-kvlds, and tell your
clients to talk to kivaloo-mux.
Example clients -- look in the /tests/ directory in SVN. The Makefiles in there
are written for BSD make, but each of them is just main.c + a bunch of C files
from /lib/ + a bunch of -I flags to allow header files from /lib/ to be found.
Are you just exploring, or do you have an application in mind for this code?
