VFS defines two sets of functions: first, a set of generic filesystem-independent routines that serve as common entry functions for all file access and manipulation operations, and second, a set of abstract operation interfaces that are filesystem specific. Each filesystem defines its operations (as per its notion of files and directories) and maps them to an abstract interface provided, and with the virtual filesystem, this enables VFS to handle file I/O requests by dynamically switching into underlying filesystem-specific functions.
