>From looking at the various change logs and seeing some of the discussion, i
take it that a lot has changed in the VFS since 2.2.x
Could someone explain (or even better point me to a FAQ or doc or howto) to
me what all has changed from a filesystem's point of view?
What all needs to be done to port a filesystem to 2.3/2.4?

What might be really nice, although possiblely overkill, would be for
someone to write a skeleton filesystem that just demostraights the proper
way to interact with the VFS layer and stuff.

Sorry if this has already been answered somewhere, and thanks in advance for
your help.
