Project 6 - File System Project 6 - File System
Project 6 Project Scope What do you have to do? Implement a virtual file system using a virtual block device. Implement a UNIX-like interface to the filesystem. You need to support: Create files of variable size (while efficiently using disk space) Reclaim storage from deleted files. A hierarchy of nested directories. Concurrent access to the SAME file(s) by multiple threads.
Project 6 Project Scope Our proposed plan of attack Play with the block device, and see how it behaves. Learn the UNIX filesystem API: Parameters. Semantics. Decide on details of filesystem internals. Representation of directories, inodes, the superblock, etc.. Implement. Perform extensive testing. Concurrent operations should be your focus when testing.
