The soruce (look at say ext2 and use that as a template for new ones).

The source (and it is not easy).

The CMU documentation.  But this is actually quite easy, there is two
ways:  a task inherits ports from its parent (the bootstrap port, the
root, etc).  Second, port rights are passed along inside of messages:

I send you a message.  It contains data and a send right to a port
someone is listening on (i.e. not necessarily me).  Then you reply to the
indicated port.

This is actually _very_ well documented in /include/ps.h.
You could also take a look at procfs.
