Documentation for the VFS KPI does not exist anymore, but it was present in the past at the link I've specified below. I still have the local documentation, here it is a description of a function: vn_getpath int vn_getpath( struct vnode *vp, char *pathbuf, int *len); Discussion Description forthcoming Even in the DTS Q&A 1242 you mentioned it says: "Documentation for the VFS KPI is still rather rudimentary. Apple will rectify this in the future (r. 3524590); in the meantime, this Q&A includes a list of references to documentation and other resources.". By the way, how/where can I see these rdar problems ??? So, will docs for VFS KPI be updated or did they disappeared for undefined time ??? Thank you ! At 12:03 +0200 21/2/08, Sorin Negoita wrote:

I was wondering what happened with the vnode online documentation from <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/KPI_Reference/vnode/index.html>http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darwin/Reference/KPI_Reference/vnode/index.html. Now it sais "Page not found" and it redirects me to the KPI Reference page, but the vnode related functions are missing. Does anynody know another page with vnode docs because I couldn't find one :(


Alas, such documentation does not exist.

DTS Q&A 1242 "Developing For VFS" has a reasonably up-to-date summary of the state of VFS plug-in development on Mac OS X.

Sorry that we don't have a better answer )-:

If you have specific questions I'd be happy to help out (either here or on <http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/filesystem-dev>).
