Act III - Internal Components Of The VFS - the naked souls...
The following components comprise the VFS:
- dcache - cache of "dentry" objects, used to translate paths to inodes.
- inode cache - cache of "inode" objects, used to represent files and
directories on the file systems.
- common code - code which is used by many file-systems, was moved into
functions which are now part of the VFS.
