What is stored in ibdata1

Could somebody enlighten me and tell me what is exactly stored in the ibdata1 file on an instance where the file_per_table global variable is active and all tables have been made after this variable became active.

On an Oracle course the instructor told us that in this scenario the only data kept in the ibdata1 file is redo/undo logs/data. On the Mysqlperformanceblog, Miguel Nieto states that in this scenario the ibdata1 file stores some sort of table definition. (I thought this was all in the tables .frm file)

Can anybody be more specific as to what data is stored in the ibdata1 file in this scenario?
