Apart from reading librstp (which is considered to be messy etc.) we have two
main sources:

a) The RSTP standard itself can be downloaded from the IEEE webpage for free.
It's code-number is 802.1d. Don't be put off by it's technical language.

b) RSTP is based on STP. We have a decent working STP implementation inside the
Linux kernel - it can give a general idea of how to implement some parts of
RSTP.
