I have no clue what you want to modify.
For understanding the concepts of AFS and how the architecture actually 
works the document "archov-doc.pdf" from the doc/pdf directory of 
openafs is pretty enlightening ;-)

I wouldn't start with the source code if you're not familiar with the 
different kind of servers and what the client is doing and why...
Just get an overview of the architecture and the source code will be 
much easier to understand.
