There are some kernel commit messages to describe the on-disk format:
ec8c24420501d4cf3ed495c4d026984194897276
b86269f43892316ef5a177d7180d09d101a46f22

And Yue Hu wrote his own notes about compacted indexes (in Chinese):
http://tjtech.me/erofs-compacted-index-generation.html

Hope they are useful! I know that may not enough, I will try to write
more this year.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
