It's the original data structure used for file systems. It was designed originally as a structure that contained a semaphore, file system type identifier, and a union for file system data. It was simplified for the original DOS-C/FreeDOS kernel, and changes have been made by myself and others to map it into the SFT, so that it now shares this role with the SFT.
