Details on the actual datastructures

It would be very nice if this article went into details about the data structures. It looks like Intel has a nice guide. Perhaps it could be used as reference? --TimSwast (talk) 21:42, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Htree in ext2

The article says Htree indexes were originally implemented for ext2 but the patch never made it to the official branch. I've been using Htree indexes in ext2 for quite a few years (with only the ext2 module loaded in memory), so apparently some patch ultimately made it to the official branch, since I use vanilla Linux kernel sources. I'm having trouble finding authoritative sources about that however. Can we cite the kernel sources here? :) --Din Ycae (talk) 08:01, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I was wrong. The filesystem can be created by the ext2 tools with the proper bits in place (namely, the possibility of using Htree for directories), but the ext2 code makes no use of the feature. --Din Ycae (talk) 11:09, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
