| Filesystems in the Linux kernel | |
| =============================== | |
| This under-development manual will, some glorious day, provide | |
| comprehensive information on how the Linux virtual filesystem (VFS) layer | |
| works, along with the filesystems that sit below it. For now, what we have | |
| can be found below. | |
| Core VFS documentation | |
| ====================== | |
| See these manuals for documentation about the VFS layer itself and how its | |
| algorithms work. | |
