Summary: How does SCO label fs buffers in S51K?

Can anyone please explain how SCO uses the b_dev fields for S51K filesystem
buffers?

Most systems I am familiar with use b_dev as the device of the mounted
filesystem, but SCO seems to use this field differently.

P.S. my application reads the buf[] array and tries to determine the
percentage of buffer usage per filesystem. Any hints?

Thanks
