Subject: [9fans] Quick question on fossil
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 7ff3867e-ead4-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

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.
