Subject: [9fans] 9p specification: minimum number of fids?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 085d976e-ead7-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

So, I've read the specification of the 9P protocol in section 5 of the
Plan 9 manual.  However, the specification does not state how many fids
a 9P server is required to support.  Is there a minimum number of fids
that a server is required to track?  Is this specified in the latest
version of the 9P spec?

I'm wondering about this because, once upon a time, I was toying with
the idea of creating 9P client/server implementations for the Arduino
family of microcontrollers.  Being extremely limited in the amount of
memory available, I'd have to choose an upper limit on the number of
fids such an implementation would track.
