It's pretty much everything - when you write a Ruby extension, you're
calling in to the interpreter just as other parts of the interpreter
do. There's no real separate API for extensions (apart from the Struct

There's some good stuff online, and the README.ext file's pretty good
too. I _may_ be able to put some of our chapter online too, but I'd
need to clear that.
