Subject: [9fans] Quick question on fossil
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 10:13:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1231783995.6916.162.camel@goose.sun.com> (raw)
Hi!
I'm trying to read up on fossil implementation so
that I can sustain an intelligent conversation with
Andrey ;-)
Now, the paper "Fossil, an Archival File Server" is
pretty good, but here's one simple question that
I can't find an answer to: there's a pointer to
the root of the filesystem block from the Super.
But what is the data structure that is expected
to reside in that block? I thought it was VtRoot,
but looking at a hexdump of the fossil file -- it
doesn't look like one.
Thanks,
Roman.
