File-System Structure
File structure Logical storage unit Collection of related information
File system resides on secondary storage (disks).
File system organized into layers. File control block – storage structure
consisting of information about a file.

In-Memory File System Structures
The following figure illustrates the necessary file system structures provided by the operating systems.
Figure (a) refers to opening a file.
Figure (b) refers to reading a file.

Virtual File Systems
Virtual File Systems (VFS) provide an object-oriented way of implementing file systems.
VFS allows the same system call interface (the API) to be used for different types of file systems.
The API is to the VFS interface, rather than any specific type of file system.

Directory Implementation
Linear list of file names with pointer to the data blocks. simple to program time-consuming to execute
Hash Table – linear list with hash data structure. decreases directory search time collisions – situations where two file names hash to the
same location fixed size

Allocation Methods
An allocation method refers to how disk blocks are allocated for files:
Contiguous allocation
Linked allocation
Indexed allocation
![Page 12: 1 File System Implementation. 2 File System Structure File System Implementation Directory Implementation Allocation Methods Free-Space Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56649f275503460f94c3eb69/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Contiguous Allocation
Each file occupies a set of contiguous blocks on the disk.
Simple – only starting location (block #) and length (number of blocks) are required.
Random access.
Wasteful of space (dynamic storage-allocation problem).
Files cannot grow.
![Page 13: 1 File System Implementation. 2 File System Structure File System Implementation Directory Implementation Allocation Methods Free-Space Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56649f275503460f94c3eb69/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Contiguous Allocation of Disk Space
![Page 14: 1 File System Implementation. 2 File System Structure File System Implementation Directory Implementation Allocation Methods Free-Space Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56649f275503460f94c3eb69/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Extent-Based Systems
Many newer file systems use a modified contiguous allocation scheme.
Extent-based file systems allocate disk blocks in extents.
An extent is a contiguous block of disks. Extents are allocated for file allocation. A file consists of one or more extents.
![Page 15: 1 File System Implementation. 2 File System Structure File System Implementation Directory Implementation Allocation Methods Free-Space Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56649f275503460f94c3eb69/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Linked Allocation Each file is a linked list of disk blocks: blocks may be scattered
anywhere on the disk.

Linked Allocation (Cont.) Simple – need only starting address Free-space management system – no waste of space No random access Mapping
Block to be accessed is the Qth block in the linked chain of blocks representing the file.Displacement into block = R + 1

Indexed Allocation (Cont.) Need index table Random access Dynamic access without external fragmentation, but
have overhead of index block. Mapping from logical to physical in a file of maximum
size of 256K words and block size of 512 words. We need only 1 block for index table.

Free-Space Management (Cont.)
Bit map requires extra space. Example:
block size = 212 bytes
disk size = 230 bytes (1 gigabyte)
n = 230/212 = 218 bits (or 32K bytes) Easy to get contiguous files Linked list (free list)
Cannot get contiguous space easily No waste of space

Free-Space Management (Cont.) Need to protect:
Pointer to free list Bit map
Must be kept on diskCopy in memory and disk may differ.Cannot allow for block[i] to have a situation where
bit[i] = 1 in memory and bit[i] = 0 on disk. Solution:
Set bit[i] = 1 in disk.Allocate block[i]Set bit[i] = 1 in memory

Efficiency and Performance
Efficiency dependent on: disk allocation and directory algorithms types of data kept in file’s directory entry
Performance disk cache – separate section of main memory for
frequently used blocks free-behind and read-ahead – techniques to optimize
sequential access improve PC performance by dedicating section of
memory as virtual disk, or RAM disk.

Various Disk-Caching Locations

32
Page Cache A page cache caches pages rather than disk
blocks using virtual memory techniques.
Memory-mapped I/O uses a page cache.
Routine I/O through the file system uses the buffer (disk) cache.

I/O Without a Unified Buffer Cache

Unified Buffer Cache
A unified buffer cache uses the same page cache to cache both memory-mapped pages and ordinary file system I/O.

Recovery
Consistency checking – compares data in directory structure with data blocks on disk, and tries to fix inconsistencies.
Use system programs to back up data from disk to another storage device (floppy disk, magnetic tape).
Recover lost file or disk by restoring data from backup.

37
Log Structured File Systems Log structured (or journaling) file systems record each
update to the file system as a transaction.
All transactions are written to a log. A transaction is considered committed once it is written to the log. However, the file system may not yet be updated.
The transactions in the log are asynchronously written to the file system. When the file system is modified, the transaction is removed from the log.
If the file system crashes, all remaining transactions in the log must still be performed.

Unix Files Four types distinguished:
Ordinary – information from user, application, or system utility
Directory – list of file names w/pointer to index nodes (inodes)
Special – used to access peripheral devices (terminals or printers)
Named Pipes – I/O between processes
Unix uses an Inode (an information or index node) to keep track of file allocation
![Page 39: 1 File System Implementation. 2 File System Structure File System Implementation Directory Implementation Allocation Methods Free-Space Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56649f275503460f94c3eb69/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Unix Inodes Inode – an information or index node holds key
information Several file names may be associated with a single inode An active inode is associated with exactly one file and each file
is controlled by exactly one inode File allocation on a block basis and dynamic An indexed method keeps track of each file The first 10 addresses in an inode point to the first 10 blocks of
a file The 11th address points to a block containing the next portion of
the index (single indirect block) The 12th address points to a block of addresses that point to
additional single indirect blocks (double indirect block) The 13th (and final) address points to a triple indirect block that is
a third level of indexing. Unix Superblock – monitors inodes

Linux Disk Allocation Directory
List of filename/inode pairs Bitmap to indicate free or allocated blocks
Look for a free block near the current block Else try to find byte of free bits Back up to last free block, then pre-allocate 8 or more blocks
Released when file is closed if not needed Block Groups
Set of nearby blocks Helps keep the directory, inodes, and corresponding files
close to each other Always try to allocate a file in the same block group as the
parent directory Directories spread among block groups
