  • Buffered FUSE: Optimising the Android IO Stack for User-Level Filesystem
    Int. J. Embedded Systems, Vol. 6, Nos. 2/3, 2014 95 Buffered FUSE: optimising the Android IO stack for user-level filesystem Sooman Jeong and Youjip Won* Hanyang University, #507-2, Annex of Engineering Center, 17 Haengdang-dong, Sungdong-gu, Seoul, 133-791, South Korea E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract: In this work, we optimise the Android IO stack for user-level filesystem. Android imposes user-level filesystem over native filesystem partition to provide flexibility in managing the internal storage space and to maintain host compatibility. The overhead of user-level filesystem is prohibitively large and the native storage bandwidth is significantly under-utilised. We overhauled the FUSE layer in the Android platform and propose buffered FUSE (bFUSE) to address the overhead of user-level filesystem. The key technical ingredients of buffered FUSE are: 1) extended FUSE IO size; 2) internal user-level write buffer; 3) independent management thread which performs time-driven FUSE buffer synchronisation. With buffered FUSE, we examined the performances of five different filesystems and three disk scheduling algorithms in a combinatorial manner. With bFUSE on XFS filesystem using the deadline scheduling, we achieved the IO performance improvements of 470% and 419% in Android ICS and JB, respectively, over the existing smartphone device. Keywords: Android; storage; user-level filesystem; FUSE; write buffer; embedded systems. Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Jeong, S. and Won, Y.

  • Performance Characteristics of VMFS and RDM Vmware ESX Server 3.0.1
    Performance Study Performance Characteristics of VMFS and RDM VMware ESX Server 3.0.1 VMware ESX Server offers three choices for managing disk access in a virtual machine—VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS), virtual raw device mapping (RDM), and physical raw device mapping. It is very important to understand the I/O characteristics of these disk access management systems in order to choose the right access type for a particular application. Choosing the right disk access management method can be a key factor in achieving high system performance for enterprise‐class applications. This study provides performance characterization of the various disk access management methods supported by VMware ESX Server. The goal is to provide data on performance and system resource utilization at various load levels for different types of work loads. This information offers you an idea of relative throughput, I/O rate, and CPU efficiency for each of the options so you can select the appropriate disk access method for your application. This study covers the following topics: “Technology Overview” on page 2 “Executive Summary” on page 2 “Test Environment” on page 2 “Performance Results” on page 5 “Conclusion” on page 10 “Configuration” on page 10 “Resources” on page 11 Copyright © 2007 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved. 1 Performance Characteristics of VMFS and RDM Technology Overview VMFS is a special high‐performance file system offered by VMware to store ESX Server virtual machines. Available as part of ESX Server, it is a distributed file system that allows concurrent access by multiple hosts to files on a shared VMFS volume.

All Rights Reserved. ddn.com Why Btrfs for Lustre? ► Lustre today uses ldiskfs(ext4) or, more recently, ZFS as backend file system ► Ldiskfs(ext4) • ldiskfs(ext4) is used widely and exhibits well-tuned performance and proven reliability • But, its technical limitations are increasingly apparent, it is missing important novel features, lacks scalability, while offline fsck is extremely time-consuming ► ZFS • ZFS is an extremely feature-rich file system • but, for use as Lustre OSD further performance optimization is required • Licensing and potential legal issues have prevented a broader distribution ► Btrfs • Btrfs shares many features and goals with ZFS • Btrfs is becoming sufficiently stable for production usage • Btrfs is available through the major mainstream Linux distributions • Pachless server support. Simple Lustre setup and easy maintenance 2 ©2015 DataDirect Networks. All Rights Reserved. ddn.com Attractive Btrfs Features for Lustre (1) ► Features that improve OSD internally • Integrated multiple device support: RAID 0/1/10/5/6 o RAID 0 results in less OSTs per OSS and simplifies management, while improving the performance characteristics of a single OSD o RAID 1/10/5/6 improves reliability of OSDs • Dynamic inode allocation o No need to worry about formatting the MDT with wrong option to cause insufficient inode number • crc32c checksums on data and metadata o Improves OSD reliability • Online filesystem check and very fast offline filesystem check (planed) o Drives are getting bigger, but not faster, which leads to increasing fsck times 3 ©2015 DataDirect Networks.

  • An Efficient and Flexible Metadata Management Layer for Local File Systems
    An Efficient and Flexible Metadata Management Layer for Local File Systems Yubo Liu1;2, Hongbo Li1, Yutong Lu1, Zhiguang Chen∗;1, Ming Zhao∗;2 1Sun Yat-sen University, 2Arizona State University fyliu789, [email protected], fhongbo.li, yutong.lu, [email protected] Abstract—The efficiency of metadata processing affects the file traditional file systems are difficult to fully utilize the metadata system performance significantly. There are two bottlenecks in locality. metadata management in existing local file systems: 1) Path The path lookup bottleneck also exists in KV-based file lookup is costly because it causes a lot of disk I/Os, which makes metadata operations inefficient. 2) Existing file systems systems, such as TableFS [11] and BetrFS [12], which store have deep I/O stack in metadata management, resulting in metadata in write-optimized KV databases. The reasons for the additional processing overhead. To solve these two bottlenecks, inefficiency of path lookup in these systems are: 1) Queries we decoupled data and metadata management and proposed are slow in the write-optimized databases in some cases. a metadata management layer for local file systems. First, we Most write-optimized databases optimize disk I/O by caching separated the metadata based on their locations in the namespace tree and aggregated the metadata into fixed-size metadata buckets write operations, but additional overhead (e.g. multi-level table (MDBs). This design fully utilizes the metadata locality and query and value update) is required for queries. In addition, di- improves the efficiency of disk I/O in the path lookup. Second, rectory/file entry lookups require logarithmic time complexity we customized an efficient MDB storage system on the raw to complete in these write-optimized index (like LSM-Tree storage device.
