(Request For Documentation :) )

Greetings,

Does anyone have some good pointers to docs regarding implementing
filesystems under Linux 2.2.x?
Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt has been helpful in a high-level
(Thanks Richard!), but mainly whetted my appetite for more
documentation. :) I've been trying to determine more detail of what
each function is [conceptually] supposed to do (and the locks it may or
may not take) from the implementation of ext2 and others, but that's
been fairly slow going.

TIA,

Eli
