Hello I am trying to understand how the VFS layer within FreeBSD and I was rather stumped while trying to find where vop_vector was declared. Upon searching the internet, realized that an awk script is used to "generate" this like so: /sys/tools/vnode_if.awk /sys/kern/vnode_if.src -q So I was wondering if anyone could provide me a (brief would be fine as well) walk through the memory lane as to why such an 'odd looking' way was adopted (perhaps it is brilliant but my thick skull is unable to fathom it's brilliance). Keen to hear from you experts out there please! -- Best Regards, Aijaz Baig
