IntroductionIntroduction

File structureLogical storage unitCollection of related information

File system resides on secondary storage (disks)File system organized into layersFile control block storage structure consisting of information about a file

Ownership, permissions, and location of the file content

I/O transfers between memory and disk are performed in units of blocks (one more more sectors)

Virtual File SystemsVirtual File Systems

Virtual File Systems (VFS) provide an object-oriented way of implementing file systemsVFS separates file-system-generic operations from their implementation by defining a clean VFS interfaceVFS allows the same system call interface (the API) to be used for different types of file systemsVFS is based on a file-representation structure, called a vnode, that contains a numerical designator for a network-wide unique fileThe API is to the VFS interface, rather than any specific type of file system

How to allocate space to files so that disk space is utilized effectively and files can be accessed quickly

ACCESS IC LAB Graduate Institute of Electronics Engineering, NTU

P20

Contiguous AllocationContiguous Allocation

A file occupies a set of contiguous blocks on diskOnly starting block (block #) and length (number of blocks) are required in the directory entry (FCB)Fast -- Minimal seek time and head movementRandom access any block within the fileSimilar to dynamic storage-allocation problem

External fragmentation may need compaction

Files are difficult to growFind a larger hole and copy the file to the new space

ExtentExtent--Based SystemsBased Systems

Many newer file systems (I.e. Veritas File System) use a modified contiguous allocation schemeExtent-based file systems allocate disk blocks in extentsAn extent is a contiguous block of disks. Extents are allocated for file allocation. A file consists of one or more extents. Integrate contiguous allocation and linked allocation (see later)

Linked AllocationLinked Allocation

Each file is a linked list of disk blocksBlocks may be scattered anywhere on the diskDirectory contains a pointer to the first and last blocksEach block contains a pointer to the next block

Log Structured File SystemsLog Structured File Systems

Log structured (or journaling) file systems record each update to the file system as a transactionAll transactions are written to a log. A transaction is considered committed once it is written to the logHowever, the file system may not yet be updatedThe transactions in the log are asynchronously written to the file system. When the file system is modified, the transaction is removed from the logIf the file system crashes, all remaining transactions in the log must still be performed

FAT32 FSInfo Sector Structure and Backup Boot Sector

Data structure on FAT12/16/32On a FAT32 volume, the FAT can be a large data structureOn FAT16 where it is limited to a maximum of 128K worth of sectorsOn FAT12 where it is limited to a maximum of 6K worth of sectors. A provision is made to store the last known free cluster count on the FAT32 volume.

The FSInfo sector number is the value in the BPB_FSInfo field;For Microsoft operating systems it is always set to 1. Here is the structure of the FSInfo sector:

FAT32 FSInfo Sector Structure and Backup Boot Sector

The Microsoft FAT32 boot sector is actually three 512-byte sectors long. There is a copy of all three of these sectors starting at the BPB_BkBootSec sector. BPB_BkBootSec sector is a complete boot record include FSInfo sector.BPB_BkBootSec is not present on FAT16/FAT12.FAT16/FAT12 volumes can be totally lost if the contents of sector 0 of the volume are overwritten or sector 0 goes bad and cannot be read.The BPB_BkBootSec field reduces the severity of this problem for FAT32 on no value other than sector 6 When the sector 0 information has been accidentally overwritten, all a disk repair utility has to do is restore the boot sector(s) from the backup copy.When sector 0 goes bad, this allows the volume to be mounted so that the user can access data before replacing the disk.When sector 0 goes bad, check for backup boot sector(s) starting at sector 6 of the FAT32 volume.

NOTE: All 3 of these sectors have the 0xAA55 signature in sector offsets 510 and 511, just like the first boot sector does

A FAT directory is a file composed of a linear list of 32-byte structures.The root directory must always be present.For FAT12 and FAT16 media, the root directory is located in a fixed location on the disk immediately following the last FAT and is of a fixed size in sectors computed from the BPB_RootEntCnt value .For FAT12 and FAT16 media, the first sector of the root directory is sector number relative to the first sector of the FAT volume:

FirstRootDirSecNum = BPB_ResvdSecCnt + (BPB_NumFATs * BPB_FATSz16);For FAT32, the root directory can be of variable size and is a cluster chain, just like any other directory is.The first cluster of the root directory on a FAT32 volume is stored in BPB_RootClus.Unlike other directories, the root directory itself on any FAT type does not have any date or time stamps, does not have a file name (other than the implied file name \ ), and does not contain . and .. files as the first two directory entries in the directory.The only other special aspect of the root directory is that it is the only directory on the FAT volume for which it is valid to have a file that has only the ATTR_VOLUME_ID attribute bit set (see below).

Directory NameDirectory NameSpecial notes about the first byte (DIR_Name[0]) of a FAT directory entry:

If DIR_Name[0] == 0xE5, then the directory entry is free (there is no file or directory name in this entry).If DIR_Name[0] == 0x00, then the directory entry is free (same as for 0xE5), and there are no allocated directory entries after this one (all of the DIR_Name[0] bytes in all of the entries after this one are also set to 0).The special 0 value, rather than the 0xE5 value, indicates to FAT file system driver code that the rest of the entries in this directory do not need to be examined because they are all free.If DIR_Name[0] == 0x05, then the actual file name character for this byte is 0xE5. 0xE5 is actually a valid KANJI lead byte value for the character set used in Japan.The special 0x05 value is used so that this special file name case for Japan can be handled properly and not cause FAT file system code to think that the entry is free.

The DIR_Name field is actually broken into two parts+ the 8-character main part of the name, and the 3-character extension.These two parts are trailing space padded with bytes of 0x20.DIR_Name[0] may not equal 0x20.Lower case characters are not allowed in DIR_NameThe following characters are not legal in any bytes of DIR_Name:

Values less than 0x20 except for the special case of 0x05 in DIR_Name[0] described above.0x22, 0x2A, 0x2B, 0x2C, 0x2E, 0x2F, 0x3A, 0x3B, 0x3C, 0x3D, 0x3E, 0x3F, 0x5B, 0x5C, 0x5D, and 0x7C.

Directory NameDirectory NameATTR_VOLUME_ID There should only be one file on the volume that has this attribute set, and that file must be in the root directory.DIR_FstClusHI and DIR_FstClusLO must always be 0 for the volume label (no data clusters are allocated to the volume label file).When a directory is created, a file with the ATTR_DIRECTORY bit set in its DIR_Attr field, you set its DIR_FileSize to 0. DIR_FileSize is not used and is always 0 on a file with the ATTR_DIRECTORY attribute(directories are sized by simply following their cluster chains to the EOC mark). One cluster is allocated to the directory (unless it is the root directory on a FAT16/FAT12 volume), and you set DIR_FstClusLO and DIR_FstClusHI to that cluster number and place an EOC mark in that clusters entry in the FAT. Next, you initialize all bytes of that cluster to 0. If the directory is the root directory, you are done (there are no dot or dotdot entries in the root directory).

ACCESS IC LAB Graduate Institute of Electronics Engineering, NTU

P59

Directory NameDirectory NameIf the directory is not the root directory, you need to create two special entries in

the first two 32-byte FAT directory entries of the directory (the first two 32 byte entries in the data region of the cluster you just allocated).

The first directory entry has DIR_Name set to: . The second has DIR_Name set to: ..

These are called the dot and dotdot entries. The DIR_FileSize field on both entries is set to 0, and all of the date and time fields in both of these entries are set to the same values as they were in the directory entry for the directory that you just created.You now set DIR_FstClusLO and DIR_FstClusHI for the dot entry (the first entry) to the same values you put in those fields for the directories directory entry (the cluster number of the cluster that contains the dot and dotdot entries).Finally, you set DIR_FstClusLO and DIR_FstClusHI for the dotdot entry (the second entry) to the first cluster number of the directory in which you just created the directory (value is 0 if this directory is the root directory even for FAT32 volumes).Here is the summary for the dot and dotdot entries:

The dot entry is a directory that points to itself.The dotdot entry points to the starting cluster of the parent of this directory (which is 0 if this directories parent is the root directory).

Date and Time FormatsMany FAT file systems do not support Date/Time other than DIR_WrtTime and DIR_WrtDate.For this reason, DIR_CrtTimeMil, DIR_CrtTime, DIR_CrtDate, and DIR_LstAccDate are actually optional fields.DIR_WrtTime and DIR_WrtDate must be supported.Set to 0 If the other date and time fields are not supportedDate Format.

A FAT directory entry date stamp is a 16-bit field that is basically a date relative to the MS-DOS epoch of 01/01/1980. Here is the

Bits 0 4: Day of month, valid value range 1-31 inclusive.Bits 5 8: Month of year, 1 = January, valid value range 1 12 inclusive.Bits 9 15: Count of years from 1980, valid value range 0 127 inclusive (1980 2107).

Time Format. A FAT directory entry time stamp is a 16-bit field that has a granularity of 2 seconds.Here is the format:

Bits 0 4: 2-second count, valid value range 0 29 inclusive (0 58 seconds).Bits 5 10: Minutes, valid value range 0 59 inclusive.Bits 11 15: Hours, valid value range 0 23 inclusive.

The valid time range is from Midnight 00:00:00 to 23:59:58.
