New filesystem and VFS info
Hi!
I'm making a new filesystem (http://efat.sourceforge.net -> despite the name it has nothing to do with Microsoft FAT variants) and I want to know where can I find info about what is supposed to have in a Linux Filesystem Driver... (what entry points, what must they do, what kernel I/O facilities are available, these info that comes about OS/2 in the IFS document and about WinNT in the Microsoft IFSKit)
Regards

Then why call it that?

If that's what you need your best bet is to write it for 2.2 and get a copy of 'Understanding the Linux Kernel'. Otherwise, wait for the 2.4 edition of UTLK, otherwise - get ready to do some digging.
