Is there any documentation in existance anywhere that gives some
help/guidelines for people wanting to develop filesystems.

I know that there is a standard interface expected by 'vfs' and
by examining the source, a standard set of routines, but what
is each one expected to do, and return?

Thanks in advance,

Lee Essen.
