I assume you want something more detailed than this article on LWN?

	https://lwn.net/Articles/486301/

I vaguely remember there was a presentation at Plumbers, but of course
that was a long time ago, before we were regularly recording
presentations at LPC.

It may be that best sort of thing will be conference presentations
and/or refereed papers.  For example, there will be a 2019 Usenix ATC
about EROFS.

	https://www.usenix.org/conference/atc19/presentation/gao

Of course, asking developers to write refereed papers for submission
to Usenix, FAST, etc., or even giving a presentation at Plumbers is
also an awful lot to ask.  :-)
