Unified Buffer Cache A unified buffer cache uses the same page cache to cache both memory-mapped pages and ordinary file system I/O I/O Using a Unified Buffer Cache 11.7 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, other magnetic disk, optical) Recover lost file or disk by restoring data from backup 11.8 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 11.9 The Sun Network File System (NFS) An implementation and a specification of a software system for accessing remote files across LANs (or WANs) The implementation is part of the Solaris and SunOS operating systems running on Sun workstations using an unreliable datagram protocol (UDP/IP protocol and Ethernet 11.* 11.1 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 Layered File System 11.2 A Typical File Control Block In-Memory File System Structures The following figure illustrates the necessary file system structures provided by the operating systems. Figure 12-3(a) refers to opening a file. Figure 12-3(b) refers to reading a file. In-Memory File System Structures Virtual File Systems Virtual File Systems (VFS) provide an object-oriented way of implementi
