Presentation on "Virtual File System Implementation in Linux".
Presented at Army Institute of Technology, Pune for FDP on "Basics of Linux Kernel Programming". by Tushar B Kute (http://tusharkute.com).
The document describes the Linux Virtual File System (VFS) which provides a standard interface for file access across different file systems by handling file system calls and interacting with individual file systems. It discusses the key data structures in VFS including inodes, dentries, superblocks and the methods involved for operations like lookups, permission checks, attribute retrieval. The VFS acts as an abstraction layer that allows file operations to work consistently regardless of the underlying file system type.

The document describes the Linux Virtual File System (VFS) which provides a standard interface for file access across different file systems by handling file system calls and interacting with individual file systems. It discusses the key data structures in VFS including inodes, dentries, superblocks and the methods involved for operations like lookups, permission checks, attribute retrieval. The VFS acts as an abstraction layer that allows file operations to work consistently regardless of the underlying file system type.
The document summarizes the VFS/VNODE interface in the FreeBSD kernel, which provides a common interface for kernel subsystems to access filesystems without needing intimate knowledge of specific filesystem structures. It introduces the key concepts of the VFS and VNODE interfaces, which implement object-oriented polymorphism to allow filesystem-specific implementations while providing a standard interface. Common operations like mounting, opening files, and path lookups make use of virtual functions in the VFS and VNODE interfaces.
The document discusses the motivation and design of file system implementations. It describes how file systems map the logical structure to physical storage, using various on-disk and in-memory data structures. These include boot blocks, superblocks, directories, inodes/file control blocks, buffer caches, open file tables, and more. Common operations like creating, opening, reading and closing files are also outlined.
The document discusses file systems at three levels - hardware, kernel, and user space. It explains that a file system organizes data on storage devices (hardware level), provides drivers to access the data (kernel level), and presents a unified view to users through the root file system (/). It also summarizes key points about why file systems are needed, the relationships between partitions, file systems, and the root file system, and how to write a basic file system module that interacts with the virtual file system (VFS) in the kernel.
The document discusses the Linux file system at three levels: hardware space, kernel space, and user space. At the hardware level, it describes how data is organized on physical storage devices like hard disks using partitions, tracks, sectors, and block allocation. In kernel space, file system drivers decode the physical layout and interface with the virtual file system (VFS) to provide a unified view to user space. Common Linux file systems like ext2, ext3, and their data structures are also outlined.
Mechanisms and tools of development and monitoring in Linux Kernel
A brief presentation about the tools and mechanisms about development for the Linux Kernel to help understanding of what is required.
Tools that create an execution profile or provide instrumentation through static or dynamic methods, the Linux Kernel code, will be presented.
Also discussed will be the GDB debugger and how through a remote virtual serial connection to a virtual machine it can be used to debug a live Kernel and Linux Kernel modules. Also demonstrated will be how a deeper understanding of the code can be attained by attaching the memory locations used by the Kernel module to the GDB session.
Lastly, some of the Kernel execution contexts, such as, interrupts, deferrable work, context, etc. are presented.
Kernel Recipes 2016 - New hwmon device registration API - Jean DelvareAnne Nicolas
?
The hwmon subsystem originates from the 1998 project lm-sensors. Along the way, there have been a lot of effort done to have all drivers present a standard interface to user-space, and consolidate the common plumbing into an easy-to-use, hard-to-get-wrong API. The final step of this long-running effort is happening right now.

The document discusses file system implementation and structure. It covers topics like directory implementation using linear lists and hash tables, different allocation methods like contiguous, linked and indexed allocation, free space management using bit vectors and linked lists, improving performance through caching, and recovery methods like consistency checking and log structured file systems. It also provides an overview of the Sun Network File System (NFS) including its architecture, mount protocol, and remote operations.
This document provides an overview of file systems. It discusses the physical structure of a hard drive and how the master boot record partitions it into sections. File systems then organize data on those partitions by creating structures like directories, files and metadata. Common file systems include FAT, Ext, and others. File systems in Windows and Unix/Linux are compared. Journaling is introduced as a way to prevent data corruption.
This document summarizes an OOP project submitted by Minahil Saeed, Abdul Mateen, and Uzair Ali to Sir Zain-ul-Abideen. The project is a program that allows users to order pizza from Domino's Pizza online with just a few clicks by selecting options like crust, size, toppings, drinks, and sides. When the order is submitted, the program will display the total cost based on the selections. The program uses Java Swing elements like buttons, panels, menus to create the graphical user interface.
This document summarizes a proposed mobile and web application for financial trading. The application aims to allow clients to monitor stock summary and detail information. The target market is individuals directly involved in stock trading. Key features would include easy-to-use modules to view stock data across devices, large graphical representations of market activities, and query and notification tools to track trends and updates related to users' stocks. The design takes influence from Material Design, Feedly for navigation, and data visualizations from Yahoo Finance. A mobile app version is also proposed to give executives access to the same features on the go, including viewable data, alerts, and news updates.
The document discusses UNIX processes and related concepts:
1. A UNIX process consists of text, data, and stack segments in memory, and has a process table entry containing process-specific data like file descriptors and environment variables.
2. Processes are started by a kernel which calls a startup routine before main(). Processes can terminate normally via return, exit(), or _exit(), or abnormally via abort() or signals.
3. Functions like atexit(), setjmp(), longjmp(), getrlimit(), and setrlimit() allow processes to register exit handlers, transfer control between functions, and set resource limits.
Why You Need FPGA In Your High-Frequency Trading Businessjeffjohnsonau
?
The document discusses the need for field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) in high-frequency trading. It states that in high-frequency trading, speed is critical and profits are made in milliseconds, so specialized hardware is needed for an edge over competitors. General-purpose computers are too slow due to operating systems and network protocols that introduce delays. FPGAs provide a solution by allowing custom hardware to be developed and optimized for trading algorithms without the high costs of integrated circuit manufacturing. FPGAs can bypass operating systems and protocols for ultra-fast processing and market connections.
The document discusses Linux file systems. It begins with an overview of file system architecture, including inodes, dentries, superblocks, and how data is never erased but overwritten. It then covers various local file systems like Ext2, Ext3, Ext4, ReiserFS, and XFS. Next it discusses log-structured and pseudo file systems. It also covers network file systems like NFS and CIFS. Finally it summarizes cluster, distributed, and Hadoop file systems. The document provides a technical overview of Linux file system types, structures, features and capabilities.

The document discusses disk scheduling algorithms. It describes seek time and rotational latency as the two main components of access time for disk drives. It then discusses the elevator algorithm, which schedules requests in one direction at a time to reduce seek times. This is similar to how an elevator works. The one-way elevator algorithm is also described, which only services requests in one direction to avoid starvation but requires an occasional long seek to return to the start.
Market Timing, Big Data, and Machine Learning by Xiao Qiao at QuantCon 2016Quantopian

Return predictability has been a controversial topic in finance for a long time. We show there is substantial predictive power in combining forecasting variables. We apply correlation screening to combine twenty variables that have been proposed in the return predictability literature, and demonstrate forecasting power at a six-month horizon. We illustrate the economic significance of return predictability through a simulation which takes positions in SPY proportional to the model forecast.
The simulated strategy yields annual returns more than twice that of the buy-and-hold strategy, with a Sharpe ratio four times as large. This application of big data ideas to return predictability serves to shift the sentiment associated with market timing.
