Primary XFS Documentation
The XFS documentation started by SGI has been converted to docbook/Publican format. The material is suitable for experienced users as well as developers and support staff. The XML source is available in a git repository and builds of the documentation are available here:
- XFS File System Structure
- Japanese translation is also available.
- (Original versions of this material are still available at XFS Overview and Internals (html) and XFS Filesystem Structure (pdf)
The format of /proc/fs/xfs/stat also has been documented:
