Hi,
I want to implement a file system and integrate with my system. Now first i have to implement the code for disk-formatting(like populating the super_block , root inode etc). I want to see the source code for the ext3 file system for this purpose.

Please tell me which file in the kernel source contains the implementation.

Hi.I don't know about the ext 3 format code, but you can check out this repository:

https://github.com/raczzoli/testfs

It is an experimental file system, but it can handle basic operations like directory listing/creation/removal, file creation and listing and you can also find a format utility under tools.
I hope it helps.

Regards, Zoli.
