CSc 360: Operating Systems (Fall 2023)

Programming Assignment 3

P3: A Simple File System (SFS)

Spec Out: Oct 30, 2023

Code Due: Nov 27, 2023

1 Introduction

So far, you have built a shell environment and a multi-thread scheduler with process synchronization. Excellent

job! What is still missing for a “real” operating system? A file system! In this assignment, you will implement

utilities that perform operations on a file system similar to Microsoft’s FAT file system with some improvement.

1.1 Sample File Systems

You will be given a test file system image for self-testing, but you can create your own image following the

specification, and your submission may be tested against other disk images following the same specification.

You should get comfortable examining the raw, binary data in the file system images using the program xxd.

IMPORTANT: since you are dealing with binary data, functions intended for string manipulation such as

strcpy() do NOT work (since binary data may contain binary ‘0’ anywhere), and you should use functions

intended for binary data such as memcpy().

2 Tutorial Schedule

In order to help you finish this programming assignment on time successfully, the schedule of the lectures has

been updated to synchronize with the tutorials and the assignment. There are three tutorials arranged during

the course of this assignment. NOTE: Please do attend the tutorials and follow the tutorial schedule closely.

3 Requirements

3.1 Part I (3 points)

In Part I, you will write a program that displays information about the file system. In order to complete Part I,

you will need to read the file system super block and use the information in the super block to read the FAT.

Your program for Part I will be invoked as follows (output values here are just for illustration purposes):

./diskinfo test.img

Sample output:

Super block information

Block size: 512

Block count: 5120

FAT starts: 1

FAT blocks: 40

Root directory starts: 41

Root directory blocks: 8

FAT information

Free blocks: 5071

Reserved blocks: 41

Allocated blocks: 8

Please be sure to use the exact same output format as shown above.

3.2 Part II (4 points)

In Part II, you will write a program, with the routines already implemented for Part I, that displays the contents

of the root directory or a given sub-directory in the file system.

Your program for Part II will be invoked as follows:

./disklist test.img /sub_dir

The directory listing should be formatted as follows:

1. The first column will contain:

(a) F for regular files, or

(b) D for directories;

followed by a single space

2. then 10 characters to show the file size, followed by a single space

3. then 30 characters for the file name, followed by a single space

4. then the file creation date and time

For example:

F 2560 foo.txt 2015/11/15 12:00:00

F 5120 foo2.txt 2015/11/15 12:00:00

F 48127 makefs 2015/11/15 12:00:00

F 8 foo3.txt 2015/11/15 12:00:00

3.3 Part III (4 points)

In Part III, you will write a program that copies a file from the file system to the current directory in Linux. If the

specified file is not found in the root directory or a given sub-directory of the file system, you should output the

message

File not found.

and exit.

Your program for Part III will be invoked as follows:

./diskget test.img /sub_dir/foo2.txt foo.txt

3.4 Part IV (4 points)

In Part IV, you will write a program that copies a file from the current Linux directory into the file system, at the

root directory or a given sub-directory. If the specified file is not found, you should output the message

File not found.

on a single line and exit.

Your program for Part IV will be invoked as follows:

./diskput test.img foo.txt /sub_dir/foo3.txt

4 File System Specification

The FAT file system has three major components:

1. the super block,

2. the File Allocation Table (informally referred to as the FAT),

3. the directory structure.

Each of these three components is described in the subsections below.

4.1 File System Superblock

The first block (512 bytes) is reserved to contain information about the file system. The layout of the superblock

is as follows:

Description Size Default Value

File system identifier 8 bytes CSC360FS

Block Size 2 bytes 0x200

File system size (in blocks) 4 bytes 0x00001400

Block where FAT starts 4 bytes 0x00000001

Number of blocks in FAT 4 bytes 0x00000028

Block where root directory starts 4 bytes 0x00000029

Number of blocks in root dir 4 bytes 0x00000008

Note: Block number starts from 0 in the file system.

4.2 Directory Entries

Each directory entry takes 64 bytes, which implies there are 8 directory entries per 512 byte block.

Each directory entry has the following structure:

Description Size

Status 1 byte

Starting Block 4 bytes

Number of Blocks 4 bytes

File Size (in bytes) 4 bytes

Creation Time 7 bytes

Modification Time 7 bytes

File Name 31 bytes

unused (set to 0xFF) 6 bytes

The description of each field is as follows:

Status This is a bit mask that is used to describe the status of the file. Currently only 3 of

the bits are used. It is implied that only one of bit 2 or bit 1 can be set to1. That is, an entry is either a normal

file or it is a directory, not both.

Bit 0 set to 0 if this directory entry is available,

set to 1 if it is in use

Bit 1 set to 1 if this entry is a normal file

Bit 2 set to 1 if this entry is a directory

Starting Block This is the location on disk of the first block in the file

Number of Blocks The total number of blocks in this file

File Size The size of the file, in bytes. The size of this field implies that the largest file we

can support is 2

32 bytes long.

Creation Time The date and time when this file was created. The file system stores the system

times as integer values in the format: YYYYMMDDHHMMSS

Field Size

YYYY 2 bytes

MM 1 byte

DD 1 byte

HH 1 byte

MM 1 byte

SS 1 byte

Modification Time The last time this file was modified. Stored in the same format as the Creation

Time shown above.

File Name The file name, null terminated. Because of the null terminator, the maximum

length of any filename is 30 bytes. Valid characters are upper and lower case letters (a-z, A-Z), digits (0-9)

and the underscore character (_).

4.3 File Allocation Table (FAT)

Each directory entry contains the starting block number for a file, let’s say it is block number X. To find the next

block in the file, you should look at entry X in the FAT. If the value you find there does not indicate End-of-File

(i.e., the last block, see below) then that value, say Y, is the next block number in the file.

That is, the first block is at block number X, you look in the FAT table at entry X and find the value Y. The

second data block is at block number Y. Then you look in the FAT at entry Y to find the next data block

number... continue this until you find the special value in the FAT entry indicating that you are at the last FAT

entry of the file.

The FAT is really just a linked list, with the head of the list being stored in the “Starting Block” field in the

directory entry, and the ‘next pointers’ being stored in the FAT entries.

FAT entries are 4 bytes long (32 bits), which implies there are 128 FAT entries per block.

Special values for FAT entries are described in the following.

Value Meaning

0x00000000 This block is available

0x00000001 This block is reserved

0x00000002–0xFFFFFF00 Allocated blocks as part of files

0xFFFFFFFF This is the last block in a file

5 Byte Ordering

Different hardware architectures store multi-byte data (like integers) in different orders. Consider the large

integer: 0xDEADBEEF

On the Intel architecture (Little Endian), it would be stored in memory as: EF BE AD DE

On the PowerPC (Big Endian), it would be stored in memory as: DE AD BE EF

Our file system will use Big Endian for storage. This will make debugging the file system by examining the raw

data much easier.

This will mean that you have to convert all your integer values to Big Endian before writing them to disk. There

are utility functions in netinit/in.h that do exactly that. (When sending data over the network, it is expected

the data is in Big Endian format too.)

See the functions htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl().

The side effect of using these functions will be that your code will work on multiple platforms. (On machines

that natively store integers in Big Endian format, like the Mac (not the ARM or Intel-based ones), the above

functions don’t actually do anything but you should still use them!)

6 Submission Requirements

What to hand in: You need to hand in a .tar.gz file containing all your source code and a Makefile that

produces the executables for Parts I–IV.

Please include a readme.txt file that explains your design and implementation.

The file is submitted through bright.uvic.ca site.
