  • SAS Enters the Mainstream Although Adoption of Serial Attached SCSI
    SAS enters the mainstream By the InfoStor staff http://www.infostor.com/articles/article_display.cfm?Section=ARTCL&C=Newst&ARTICLE_ID=295373&KEYWORDS=Adaptec&p=23 Although adoption of Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is still in the infancy stages, the next 12 months bode well for proponents of the relatively new disk drive/array interface. For example, in a recent InfoStor QuickVote reader poll, 27% of the respondents said SAS will account for the majority of their disk drive purchases over the next year, although Serial ATA (SATA) topped the list with 37% of the respondents, followed by Fibre Channel with 32%. Only 4% of the poll respondents cited the aging parallel SCSI interface (see figure). However, surveys of InfoStor’s readers are skewed by the fact that almost half of our readers are in the channel (primarily VARs and systems/storage integrators), and the channel moves faster than end users in terms of adopting (or at least kicking the tires on) new technologies such as serial interfaces. Click here to enlarge image To get a more accurate view of the pace of adoption of serial interfaces such as SAS, consider market research predictions from firms such as Gartner and International Data Corp. (IDC). Yet even in those firms’ predictions, SAS is coming on surprisingly strong, mostly at the expense of its parallel SCSI predecessor. For example, Gartner predicts SAS disk drives will account for 16.4% of all multi-user drive shipments this year and will garner almost 45% of the overall market in 2009 (see figure on p. 18).

  • Run-Time Detection of Protocol Bugs in Storage I/O Device Drivers Domenico Cotroneo, Luigi De Simone, Roberto Natella
    1 Run-Time Detection of Protocol Bugs in Storage I/O Device Drivers Domenico Cotroneo, Luigi De Simone, Roberto Natella Abstract—Protocol violation bugs in storage device drivers are necessarily lead to such symptoms. The lack of detection can a critical threat for data integrity, since these bugs can silently lead to silent corruptions of users’ data, thus exacerbating the corrupt the commands and data flowing between the OS and cost of software failures. storage devices. Due to their nature, these bugs are notoriously difficult to find by traditional testing. In this paper, we propose In this paper, we propose a novel approach for detecting I/O a run-time monitoring approach for storage device drivers, in protocol violations in storage device drivers, by monitoring at order to detect I/O protocol violations that would otherwise run-time the interactions between the driver and the hardware silently escalate in corruptions of users’ data. The monitoring device controller. The purpose of the run-time monitor is to de- approach detects violations of I/O protocols by automatically learning a reference model from failure-free execution traces. The tect device driver failures in a timely manner. This solution is approach focuses on selected portions of the storage controller meant both to users and engineers of high-availability storage interface, in order to achieve a good trade-off in terms of low systems, including: administrators and end-users of the system, performance overhead and high coverage and accuracy of failure which need to get alarms about the onset of data corruptions in detection.
