Development of a Verified Flash File System ⋆
Development of a Verified Flash File System ? Gerhard Schellhorn, Gidon Ernst, J¨orgPf¨ahler,Dominik Haneberg, and Wolfgang Reif Institute for Software & Systems Engineering University of Augsburg, Germany fschellhorn,ernst,joerg.pfaehler,haneberg,reifg @informatik.uni-augsburg.de Abstract. This paper gives an overview over the development of a for- mally verified file system for flash memory. We describe our approach that is based on Abstract State Machines and incremental modular re- finement. Some of the important intermediate levels and the features they introduce are given. We report on the verification challenges addressed so far, and point to open problems and future work. We furthermore draw preliminary conclusions on the methodology and the required tool support. 1 Introduction Flaws in the design and implementation of file systems already lead to serious problems in mission-critical systems. A prominent example is the Mars Explo- ration Rover Spirit [34] that got stuck in a reset cycle. In 2013, the Mars Rover Curiosity also had a bug in its file system implementation, that triggered an au- tomatic switch to safe mode. The first incident prompted a proposal to formally verify a file system for flash memory [24,18] as a pilot project for Hoare's Grand Challenge [22]. We are developing a verified flash file system (FFS). This paper reports on our progress and discusses some of the aspects of the project. We describe parts of the design, the formal models, and proofs, pointing out challenges and solutions. The main characteristic of flash memory that guides the design is that data cannot be overwritten in place, instead space can only be reused by erasing whole blocks. -

Redbooks Paper Linux on IBM Zseries and S/390
Redbooks Paper Simon Williams Linux on IBM zSeries and S/390: TCP/IP Broadcast on z/VM Guest LAN Preface This Redpaper provides information to help readers plan for and exploit Internet Protocol (IP) broadcast support that was made available to z/VM Guest LAN environments with the introduction of the z/VM 4.3 Operating System. Using IP broadcast support, Linux guests can for the first time use DHCP to lease an IP address dynamically from a DHCP server in a z/VM Guest LAN environment. This frees the administrator from the previous method of having to hardcode an IP address for every Linux guest in the system. This new feature enables easier deployment and administration of large-scale Linux environments. Objectives The objectives of this paper are to: Review the z/VM Guest LAN environment Explain IP broadcast Introduce the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Explain how DHCP works in a z/VM Guest LAN Describe how to implement DHCP in a z/VM Guest LAN environment © Copyright IBM Corp. 2003. All rights reserved. ibm.com/redbooks 1 z/VM Guest LAN Attention: While broadcast support for z/VM Guest LANs was announced with the base z/VM 4.3 operating system, the user must apply the PTF for APAR VM63172. This APAR resolves several issues which have been found to inhibit the use of DHCP by Linux-based applications running over the z/VM Guest LAN (in simulated QDIO mode). Introduction Prior to z/VM 4.2, virtual connectivity options for connecting one or more virtual machines (VM guests) was limited to virtual channel-to-channel adapters (CTCA) and the Inter-User Communications Vehicle (IUCV) facility. -

AMD Alchemy™ Processors Building a Root File System for Linux® Incorporating Memory Technology Devices
AMD Alchemy™ Processors Building a Root File System for Linux® Incorporating Memory Technology Devices 1.0 Scope This document outlines a step-by-step process for building and deploying a Flash-based root file system for Linux® on an AMD Alchemy™ processor-based development board, using an approach that incorporates Memory Technology Devices (MTDs) with the JFFS2 file system. Note: This document describes creating a root file system on NOR Flash memory devices, and does not apply to NAND Flash devices. 1.1 Journaling Flash File System JFFS2 is the second generation of the Journaling Flash File System (JFFS). This file system provides a crash-safe and powerdown-safe Linux file system for use with Flash memory devices. The home page for the JFFS project is located at http://developer.axis.com/software/jffs. 1.2 Memory Technology Device The MTD subsystem provides a generic Linux driver for a wide range of memory devices, including Flash memory devices. This driver creates an abstracted device used by JFFS2 to interface to the actual Flash memory hardware. The home page for the MTD project is located at http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org. 2.0 Building the Root File System Before being deployed to an AMD Alchemy platform, the file system must first be built on an x86 Linux host PC. The pri- mary concern when building a Flash-based root file system is often the size of the image. The file system must be designed so that it fits within the available space of the Flash memory, with enough extra space to accommodate any runtime-created files, such as temporary or log files. -

FRASH: Hierarchical File System for FRAM and Flash
FRASH: Hierarchical File System for FRAM and Flash Eun-ki Kim 1,2 Hyungjong Shin 1,2 Byung-gil Jeon 1,2 Seokhee Han 1 Jaemin Jung 1 Youjip Won 1 1Dept. of Electronics and Computer Engineering, Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea 2Samsung Electronics Co., Seoul, Korea [email protected] Abstract. In this work, we develop novel file system, FRASH, for byte- addressable NVRAM (FRAM[1]) and NAND Flash device. Byte addressable NVRAM and NAND Flash is typified by the DRAM-like fast access latency and high storage density, respectively. Hierarchical storage architecture which consists of byte-addressable NVRAM and NAND Flash device can bring synergy and can greatly enhance the efficiency of file system in various aspects. Unfortunately, current state of art file system for Flash device is not designed for byte-addressable NVRAM with DRAM-like access latency. FRASH file system (File System for FRAM an NAND Flash) aims at exploiting physical characteristics of FRAM and NAND Flash device. It effectively resolves long mount time issue which has long been problem in legacy LFS style NAND Flash file system. In FRASH file system, NVRAM is mapped into memory address space and contains file system metadata and file metadata information. Consistency between metadata in NVRAM and data in NAND Flash is maintained via transaction. In hardware aspect, we successfully developed hierarchical storage architecture. We used 8 MByte FRAM which is the largest chip allowed by current state of art technology. We compare the performance of FRASH with legacy Its-style file system for NAND Flash. FRASH file system achieves x5 improvement in file system mount latency.
