  • Filesystem Considerations for Embedded Devices ELC2015 03/25/15
    Filesystem considerations for embedded devices ELC2015 03/25/15 Tristan Lelong Senior embedded software engineer Filesystem considerations ABSTRACT The goal of this presentation is to answer a question asked by several customers: which filesystem should you use within your embedded design’s eMMC/SDCard? These storage devices use a standard block interface, compatible with traditional filesystems, but constraints are not those of desktop PC environments. EXT2/3/4, BTRFS, F2FS are the first of many solutions which come to mind, but how do they all compare? Typical queries include performance, longevity, tools availability, support, and power loss robustness. This presentation will not dive into implementation details but will instead summarize provided answers with the help of various figures and meaningful test results. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2. Block devices 3. Available filesystems 4. Performances 5. Tools 6. Reliability 7. Conclusion Filesystem considerations ABOUT THE AUTHOR • Tristan Lelong • Embedded software engineer @ Adeneo Embedded • French, living in the Pacific northwest • Embedded software, free software, and Linux kernel enthusiast. 4 Introduction Filesystem considerations Introduction INTRODUCTION More and more embedded designs rely on smart memory chips rather than bare NAND or NOR. This presentation will start by describing: • Some context to help understand the differences between NAND and MMC • Some typical requirements found in embedded devices designs • Potential filesystems to use on MMC devices 6 Filesystem considerations Introduction INTRODUCTION Focus will then move to block filesystems. How they are supported, what feature do they advertise. To help understand how they compare, we will present some benchmarks and comparisons regarding: • Tools • Reliability • Performances 7 Block devices Filesystem considerations Block devices MMC, EMMC, SD CARD Vocabulary: • MMC: MultiMediaCard is a memory card unveiled in 1997 by SanDisk and Siemens based on NAND flash memory.

  • Maintaining a File System File System Integrity Utility: Fsck -P [Filesystem]
    Maintaining a File System File System Integrity utility: fsck -p [fileSystem] fsck (file system check) scans the specified file systems and checks them for consistency. The kind of consistency errors that can exist include: • A block is marked as free in the bitmap but is also referenced from an inode. • A block is marked as used in the bitmap but is never referenced from an inode. • More than one inode refers to the same block. • An invalid block number. • An inode's link count is incorrect. • A used inode is not referenced from any directory. 1 file system integrity fsck -p [fileSystem] If the -p option is used, fsck automatically corrects any errors that it finds. Without the -p option, it prompts the user for confirmation of any corrections that it suggests. If fsck finds a block that is used but is not associated with a named file, it connects it to a file whose name is equal to the block's inode number in the "/lost+found" directory. If no file systems are specified, fsck checks the standard file systems listed in "/etc/fstab." Linux has specialized fsck programs for different types of file systems. For example, when checking an ext2 or ext3 file system, fsck act as a front-end to e2fsck, which is the program that actually checks the file system. 2 Display disk statistics My disk is full, my files are not saved, why?!@#$ du -- display disk usage displays the number of kB that are allocated to each of the specified filenames.

  • A Ffsck: the Fast File System Checker
    A ffsck: The Fast File System Checker AO MA, University of Wisconsin, Madison; Backup Recovery Systems Division, EMC Corporation CHRIS DRAGGA, ANDREA C. ARPACI-DUSSEAU, and REMZI H. ARPACI-DUSSEAU, University of Wisconsin, Madison MARSHALL KIRK McKUSICK, McKusick.com Crash failures, hardware errors, and file system bugs can corrupt file systems and cause data loss, despite the presence of journals and similar preventive techniques. While consistency checkers such as fsck can detect this corruption and restore a damaged image to a usable state, they are generally created as an afterthought, to be run only at rare intervals. Thus, checkers operate slowly, causing significant downtime for large scale storage systems when they are needed. We address this dilemma by treating the checker as a key component of the overall file system (and not merely a peripheral add-on). To this end, we present a modified ext3 file system, rext3, to directly support the fast file system checker, ffsck. The rext3 file system colocates and self-identifies its metadata blocks, removing the need for costly seeks and tree traversals during checking. These modifications to the file system allow ffsck to scan and repair the file system at rates approaching the full sequential bandwidth of the underlying device. In addition, we demonstrate that rext3 performs competitively with ext3 in most cases and exceeds it in handling random reads and large writes. Finally, we apply our principles to FFS, the default FreeBSD file system, and its checker, doing so in a lightweight fashion that preserves the file-system layout while still providing some of the gains in performance from ffsck.

  • Freebsd Command Reference
    FreeBSD command reference Command structure Each line you type at the Unix shell consists of a command optionally followed by some arguments , e.g. ls -l /etc/passwd | | | cmd arg1 arg2 Almost all commands are just programs in the filesystem, e.g. "ls" is actually /bin/ls. A few are built- in to the shell. All commands and filenames are case-sensitive. Unless told otherwise, the command will run in the "foreground" - that is, you won't be returned to the shell prompt until it has finished. You can press Ctrl + C to terminate it.
