Detailed description of the invention
The embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to accompanying drawing.
First, reference Fig. 1 is described the formatting method of Virtual File System according to embodiments of the present invention.
As it is shown in figure 1, the formatting method of the Virtual File System of the embodiment of the present invention includes two steps. In first step S101, described formatting method is provided for storage unit in the first Coutinuous store space The meta-data region of data.As known to those skilled, described metadata (metadaata) is to use The essential information of the file in Virtual File System and file is described.Usually mix with data with metadata The mode of miscellaneous storage is different, in the formatting method of the embodiment of the present invention, special, even by one piece Continuous memory space (that is, described first Coutinuous store space) stores and states metadata.
On the other hand, in second step S102, described formatting method with described first Coutinuous store At least one second Coutinuous store space that space is separated arranges at least one for the number storing file According to district.
Specifically, described meta-data region includes the first field and at least one second field.Described second word Section indexes for log file.It is to say, described second field is file index field, also referred to as rope Draw node (indexNode) field.Described second field can record the information of each file, such as, wrap Containing such as size, the time, the essential information of file type etc., and there is the pointer pointing to file content. Described meta-data region can comprise one or more second field, for the index of the different file of record respectively. The described quantity of the second field and the quantity of disk there is no one-to-one relationship, and can as required (as When described meta-data region is inadequate) add the second independent field.
Described first field is for recording the association between described file index.Specifically, in an embodiment In, described association is represented by the side-play amount of described file index.It is to say, described first field The middle side-play amount recording described file index.In the present invention, it is directory entry by described first field definition Routing information (DirPath).
More specifically, described first field can be with the distributed intelligence of recording indexes node.There is currently two The situation of individual second field is example.If currently have two indexNode, an and indexNode Numbered 0-10000, the numbered 10000-250000 of the 2nd indexNode, then in DirPath wrap Containing two records: Article 1: index numbers: 0-10000, offset information (pos): 1024;Article 2: Index numbers: 10000-250000, offset information pos:3324.When requiring to look up more than 10000 numberings File time, then need to search from the record that Article 2 record shift quantity 3324 is initial.
Although it is pointed out that in above example and being described as a example by side-play amount, but, this Skilled person is it is understood that the invention is not restricted to this, but can record its of described file index His any suitable information, as long as it can be used to indicate that the association between described file index.
Thus, in the formatting method of the embodiment of the present invention, by two pieces of continuous logics separated from one another Memory space stores described second field and described first field, i.e. file index and file rope Association between drawing and side-play amount, thereby, it is possible to separate the extension of metadata and the extension of data.
