hi.
i am trying to create an in-memory for Reiser4. from
the code i understand the following:
1) Znode is the inmemory representation of the actual
node.
2) children have pointers to thier parents and alsso
maintain their position in parents.
3) Znodes also have the de-limiting keys
and other fields.
now my questions are:
1) from where do you start traversing the tree?
2) are these nodes actually linked in memory as they
are in a tree.
3) once you get a key for a file how do u locate the
lock where the data for that file is to be found.
you obviously compare with the de-limiting keys to get
to the node then wat.... how do u reach any other
level since there are no down pointers.
regards,
siddharth
