+Common XFS Types
+----------------
+
+All the following XFS types can be found in xfs\_types.h. NULL values are
+always -1 on disk (ie. all bits for the value set to one).
+
+**xfs\_ino\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit absolute `inode number <#inode-numbers>`__.
+
+**xfs\_off\_t**
+    Signed 64 bit file offset.
+
+**xfs\_daddr\_t**
+    Signed 64 bit disk address (sectors).
+
+**xfs\_agnumber\_t**
+    Unsigned 32 bit `AG number <#allocation-groups>`__.
+
+**xfs\_agblock\_t**
+    Unsigned 32 bit AG relative block number.
+
+**xfs\_extlen\_t**
+    Unsigned 32 bit `extent <#data-extents>`__ length in blocks.
+
+**xfs\_extnum\_t**
+    Signed 32 bit number of extents in a data fork.
+
+**xfs\_aextnum\_t**
+    Signed 16 bit number of extents in an attribute fork.
+
+**xfs\_dablk\_t**
+    Unsigned 32 bit block number for `directories <#directories>`__ and
+    `extended attributes <#extended-attributes>`__.
+
+**xfs\_dahash\_t**
+    Unsigned 32 bit hash of a directory file name or extended attribute name.
+
+**xfs\_fsblock\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit filesystem block number combining `AG
+    number <#allocation-groups>`__ and block offset into the AG.
+
+**xfs\_rfsblock\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit raw filesystem block number.
+
+**xfs\_rtblock\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit extent number in the `real-time <#real-time-devices>`__
+    sub-volume.
+
+**xfs\_fileoff\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit block offset into a file.
+
+**xfs\_filblks\_t**
+    Unsigned 64 bit block count for a file.
+
+**uuid\_t**
+    16-byte universally unique identifier (UUID).
+
+**xfs\_fsize\_t**
+    Signed 64 bit byte size of a file.

+Magic Numbers
+-------------
+
+These are the magic numbers that are known to XFS, along with links to the
+relevant chapters. Magic numbers tend to have consistent locations:
+
+-  32-bit magic numbers are always at offset zero in the block.
+
+-  16-bit magic numbers for the directory and attribute B+tree are at offset
+   eight.
+
+-  The quota magic number is at offset zero.
+
+-  The inode magic is at the beginning of each inode.
