Fuse filesystems on OS X are user-land applications entirely outside the kernel. However, I believe OSXFUSE itself, atop which the filesystems are built and operate, requires/includes a kernel extension.
(Edited for better explanation than initial wording)
- boduh 10y agoThat's right. OSXFUSE includes a kernel extension (https://github.com/osxfuse/kext https://github.com/osxfuse/kext). There is no other technical way to achieve this without a kernel extension on both Windows and OSX.
