#include <string.h>
Added optional block-level caching This adds caching of the most recent read/program blocks, allowing support of devices that don't have byte-level read+writes, along with reduced device access on devices that do support byte-level read+writes. Note: The current implementation is a bit eager to drop caches where it simplifies the cache layer. This layer is already complex enough. Note: It may be worthwhile to add a compile switch for caching to reduce code size, note sure. Note: This does add a dependency on malloc, which could have a porting layer, but I'm just using the functions from stdlib for now. These can be overwritten with noops if the user controls the system, and keeps things simple for now.

#include <stdlib.h>
Added caching with managed caches at the file level This adds a fully independent layer between the rest of the filesystem and the block device. This requires some additionally logic around cache invalidation and flushing, but removes the need for any higher layer to consider read/write sizes less than what is supported by the hardware. Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access. (A full block may not be the best for speed, consider if only a small portion of the read block is used, but I'll leave that evaluation as an exercise for any consumers of this library)

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added caching with managed caches at the file level This adds a fully independent layer between the rest of the filesystem and the block device. This requires some additionally logic around cache invalidation and flushing, but removes the need for any higher layer to consider read/write sizes less than what is supported by the hardware. Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access. (A full block may not be the best for speed, consider if only a small portion of the read block is used, but I'll leave that evaluation as an exercise for any consumers of this library)

Fixed dirty rcache during directory commit An interesting side-effect of adding internal checks to the littlefs for block errors, is that the littlefs starts to cover up its own flaws. Probably out of embarrassment. In this case, the relocation logic for directories left the littlefs rcache dirty with invalid data. The littlefs detected the error, treated it as a corrupted write, and just moved the "corrupted" block to a new block, which as a side-effect flushes the rcache. Since committing a dir will end up flushing the rcache to check for errors anyways, we can just drop the rcache in lfs_bd_sync.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

/// Block allocator ///
Added full dir list and rudimentary block allocator In writing the initial allocator, I ran into the rather difficult problem of trying to iterate through the entire filesystem cheaply and with only constant memory consumption (which prohibits recursive functions). The solution was to simply thread all directory blocks onto a massive linked-list that spans the entire filesystem. With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

lfs_block_t off = (((lfs_soff_t)(block - lfs->free.begin)
Fixed issue with negative modulo with unaligned lookaheads When the lookahead buffer wraps around in an unaligned filesystem, it's possible for blocks at the beginning of the disk to have a negative distance from the lookahead, but still reside in the lookahead buffer. Switching to signed modulo doesn't quite work due to how negative modulo is implemented in C, so the simple solution is to shift the region to be positive.

% (lfs_soff_t)(lfs->cfg->block_count))

Fixed issue with aggressively rounding down lookahead configuration The littlefs allows buffers to be passed statically in the case that a system does not have a heap. Unfortunately, this means we can't round up in the case of an unaligned lookahead buffer. Double unfortunately, rounding down after clamping to the block device size could result in a lookahead of zero for block devices < 32 blocks large. The assert in littlefs does catch this case, but rounding down prevents support for < 32 block devices. The solution is to simply require a 32-bit aligned buffer with an assert. This avoids runtime problems while allowing a user to pass in the correct buffer for < 32 block devices. Rounding up can be handled at higher API levels.

The solution was to simply thread all directory blocks onto a massive linked-list that spans the entire filesystem. With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Fixed issue with aggressively rounding down lookahead configuration The littlefs allows buffers to be passed statically in the case that a system does not have a heap. Unfortunately, this means we can't round up in the case of an unaligned lookahead buffer. Double unfortunately, rounding down after clamping to the block device size could result in a lookahead of zero for block devices < 32 blocks large. The assert in littlefs does catch this case, but rounding down prevents support for < 32 block devices. The solution is to simply require a 32-bit aligned buffer with an assert. This avoids runtime problems while allowing a user to pass in the correct buffer for < 32 block devices. Rounding up can be handled at higher API levels.

Added proper handling of orphans Unfortunately, threading all dir blocks in a linked-list did not come without problems. While it's possible to atomically add a dir to the linked list (by adding the new dir into the linked-list position immediately after it's parent, requiring only one atomic update to the parent block), it is not easy to make sure the linked-list is in a state that always allows atomic removal of dirs. The simple solution is to allow this non-atomic removal, with an additional step to remove any orphans that could have been created by a power-loss. This deorphan step is only run if the normal allocator has failed.

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Shrinked on-disk directory program size Directories still consume two full erase blocks, but now only program the exact on-disk region to store the directory contents. This results in a decent improvement in the amount of data written and read to the device when doing directory operations. Calculating the checksum of dynamically sized data is surprisingly tricky, since the size of the data could also contain errors. For the littlefs, we can assume the data size must fit in an erase block. If the data size is invalid, we can just treat the block as corrupted.

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Shrinked on-disk directory program size Directories still consume two full erase blocks, but now only program the exact on-disk region to store the directory contents. This results in a decent improvement in the amount of data written and read to the device when doing directory operations. Calculating the checksum of dynamically sized data is surprisingly tricky, since the size of the data could also contain errors. For the littlefs, we can assume the data size must fit in an erase block. If the data size is invalid, we can just treat the block as corrupted.

Added full dir list and rudimentary block allocator In writing the initial allocator, I ran into the rather difficult problem of trying to iterate through the entire filesystem cheaply and with only constant memory consumption (which prohibits recursive functions). The solution was to simply thread all directory blocks onto a massive linked-list that spans the entire filesystem. With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

// successful commit, check checksum to make sure
Fixed issue with committing directories to bad-blocks that are stuck This is only an issue in the weird case that are worn down block is left in the odd state of not being able to change the data that resides on the block. That being said, this does pop up often when simulating wear on block devices. Currently, directory commits checked if the write succeeded by crcing the block to avoid the additional RAM cost for another buffer.

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added full dir list and rudimentary block allocator In writing the initial allocator, I ran into the rather difficult problem of trying to iterate through the entire filesystem cheaply and with only constant memory consumption (which prohibits recursive functions). The solution was to simply thread all directory blocks onto a massive linked-list that spans the entire filesystem. With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

Added dir navigation without needing parent entries This should be the last step to removing the need for parent entries. Parent entries cause all sort of problems with atomic directory updates, especially related to moving/deleting directories. I couldn't figure out a parser for '..' entries without, O(n^2) runtime, a stack, or modifying the path itself. Since the goal is constant memory consumption, I went with the O(n^2) runtime solution, but this may need to be optimized later.

Refactored deduplicate/deorphan step to single deorphan step Deduplication and deorphan steps aren't required under indentical conditions, but they can be processed in the same iteration of the filesystem.

Also traded out the places where lfs_rename/lfs_remove just defer operations to the deorphan step. This adds a bit of code, but also significantly speeds up directory operations.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

Modified entry head to include name length This provides a path for adding inlined files in the future, which requires multiple lengths to distinguish between the file data and name. As an extra bonus, the directory can now be iterated over even if the types are unknown, since the name's representation is consistent on all entry types. This does come at the cost of reducing types from 16-bits to 8-bits, but I doubt this will become a problem.

Extended entry tag to support attributes Zero attributes are actually supported at the moment, but this change will allow entry attribute to be added in a backwards compatible manner. Each dir entry is now prefixed with a 32 bit tag: 4b - entry type 4b - data structure 8b - entry len 8b - attribute len 8b - name len A full entry on disk looks a bit like this: [- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|-- elen --|-- alen --|-- nlen --] [ type | elen | alen | nlen | entry | attrs | name ] The actually contents of the attributes section is a bit handwavey until the first attributes are implemented, but to put plans in place: Each attribute will be prefixed with only a byte that indicates the type of attribute. Attributes should be sorted based on portability, since unknown attributes will force attribute parsing to stop.

Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access.

Removed clamping to block size in ctz linked-list Initially, I was concerned that the number of pointers in the ctz linked-list could exceed the storage in a block. Long story short this isn't really possible outside of extremely small block sizes. Since clamping impacts the layout of files on disk, removing the block size removed quite a bit of logic and corner cases. Replaced with an assert on block size during initialization. --- Long story long, the minimum block size needed to store all ctz pointers in a filesystem can be found with this formula: B = (w/8)*log2(2^w / (B - 2*(w/8))) where: B = block size in bytes w = pointer width in bits It's not a very pretty formula, but does give us some useful info if we apply some math: min block size: 32 bit ctz linked-list = 104 bytes 64 bit ctz linked-list = 448 bytes For littlefs, 128 bytes is a perfectly reasonable minimum block size.

But when seeking to that pos, the lfs_index_find to warm things up just supplies the block it expects pos to be in. Fixed the off-by-one error and added a test case for several of these cold seek+writes.

Added caching with managed caches at the file level This adds a fully independent layer between the rest of the filesystem and the block device. This requires some additionally logic around cache invalidation and flushing, but removes the need for any higher layer to consider read/write sizes less than what is supported by the hardware. Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access. (A full block may not be the best for speed, consider if only a small portion of the read block is used, but I'll leave that evaluation as an exercise for any consumers of this library)

Refactored deduplicate/deorphan step to single deorphan step Deduplication and deorphan steps aren't required under indentical conditions, but they can be processed in the same iteration of the filesystem. Since lfs_alloc (requires deorphan) occurs on most write calls to the filesystem (requires deduplication), it was simpler to just compine the steps into a single lfs_deorphan step. Also traded out the places where lfs_rename/lfs_remove just defer operations to the deorphan step. This adds a bit of code, but also significantly speeds up directory operations.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

entry.d.type = LFS_TYPE_REG;
Extended entry tag to support attributes Zero attributes are actually supported at the moment, but this change will allow entry attribute to be added in a backwards compatible manner. Each dir entry is now prefixed with a 32 bit tag: 4b - entry type 4b - data structure 8b - entry len 8b - attribute len 8b - name len A full entry on disk looks a bit like this: [- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|-- elen --|-- alen --|-- nlen --] [ type | elen | alen | nlen | entry | attrs | name ] The actually contents of the attributes section is a bit handwavey until the first attributes are implemented, but to put plans in place: Each attribute will be prefixed with only a byte that indicates the type of attribute. Attributes should be sorted based on portability, since unknown attributes will force attribute parsing to stop.

if (flags & LFS_O_TRUNC) {
Fixed file truncation without writes In the open call, the LFS_O_TRUNC flag was correctly zeroing the file, but it wasn't actually writing the change out to disk. This went unnoticed because in the cases where the truncate was followed by a file write, the updated contents would be written out correctly. Marking the file as dirty if the file isn't already truncated fixes the problem with the least impact. Also added better test cases around truncating files.

Fixed non-standard behaviour of rdwr streams Originally had two seperate positions for reading/writing, but this is inconsistent with the the posix standard, which has a single position for reading and writing. Also added proper handling of when the file is dirty, just added an internal flag for this state. Also moved the entry out of the file struct, and rearranged some members to clean things up.

// actual file updates
Added caching with managed caches at the file level This adds a fully independent layer between the rest of the filesystem and the block device. This requires some additionally logic around cache invalidation and flushing, but removes the need for any higher layer to consider read/write sizes less than what is supported by the hardware. Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access. (A full block may not be the best for speed, consider if only a small portion of the read block is used, but I'll leave that evaluation as an exercise for any consumers of this library)

Unfortunately, lfs_off_t is already used intensively through the codebase, so in focusing on moving forward and avoiding getting bogged down by details, I'm going to keep it as is and use the signed type lfs_soff_t where necessary.

Added sticky-bit for preventing file syncs after write errors Short story, files are no longer committed to directories during file sync/close if the last write did not complete successfully. This avoids a set of interesting user-experience issues related to the end-of-life behaviour of the filesystem. As a filesystem approaches end-of-life, the chances of running into LFS_ERR_NOSPC grows rather quickly. Since this condition occurs after at the end of a devices life, it's likely that operating in these conditions hasn't been tested thoroughly. In the specific case of file-writes, you can hit an LFS_ERR_NOSPC after parts of the file have been written out. If the program simply continues and closes the file, the file is written out half completed. Since littlefs has a strong garuntee the prevents half-writes, it's unlikely this state of the file would be expected. To make things worse, since close is also responsible for memory cleanup, it's actually _impossible_ to continue working as it was without leaking memory. By prevent the file commits, end-of-life behaviour should at least retain a previous copy of the filesystem without any surprises.

lfs_entry_t entry = {.off = file->poff};
Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added caching with managed caches at the file level This adds a fully independent layer between the rest of the filesystem and the block device. This requires some additionally logic around cache invalidation and flushing, but removes the need for any higher layer to consider read/write sizes less than what is supported by the hardware. Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases. For very limited embedded systems with byte-level read/writes, the caches could be omitted completely, or they could even be the size of a full block for minimizing storage access. (A full block may not be the best for speed, consider if only a small portion of the read block is used, but I'll leave that evaluation as an exercise for any consumers of this library)

Fixed issue with cold-write after seek to block boundary This off-by-one error was caused by a slight difference between the pos argument to lfs_index_find and lfs_index_extend. When pos is on a block boundary, lfs_index_extend expects block to point before pos, as it would when writing a file linearly. But when seeking to that pos, the lfs_index_find to warm things up just supplies the block it expects pos to be in. Fixed the off-by-one error and added a test case for several of these cold seek+writes.

Added sticky-bit for preventing file syncs after write errors Short story, files are no longer committed to directories during file sync/close if the last write did not complete successfully. This avoids a set of interesting user-experience issues related to the end-of-life behaviour of the filesystem. As a filesystem approaches end-of-life, the chances of running into LFS_ERR_NOSPC grows rather quickly. Since this condition occurs after at the end of a devices life, it's likely that operating in these conditions hasn't been tested thoroughly. In the specific case of file-writes, you can hit an LFS_ERR_NOSPC after parts of the file have been written out. If the program simply continues and closes the file, the file is written out half completed. Since littlefs has a strong garuntee the prevents half-writes, it's unlikely this state of the file would be expected. To make things worse, since close is also responsible for memory cleanup, it's actually _impossible_ to continue working as it was without leaking memory. By prevent the file commits, end-of-life behaviour should at least retain a previous copy of the filesystem without any surprises.

Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Fixed incorrect return value from lfs_file_seek lfs_file_seek returned the _previous_ file offset on success, where most standards return the _calculated_ offset on success. This just falls into me not noticing a mistake, and shows why it's always helpful to have a second set of eyes on code.

Unfortunately, lfs_off_t is already used intensively through the codebase, so in focusing on moving forward and avoiding getting bogged down by details, I'm going to keep it as is and use the signed type lfs_soff_t where necessary.

Also added proper handling of when the file is dirty, just added an internal flag for this state. Also moved the entry out of the file struct, and rearranged some members to clean things up.

Modified entry head to include name length This provides a path for adding inlined files in the future, which requires multiple lengths to distinguish between the file data and name. As an extra bonus, the directory can now be iterated over even if the types are unknown, since the name's representation is consistent on all entry types.

Attributes should be sorted based on portability, since unknown attributes will force attribute parsing to stop.

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

Shrinked on-disk directory program size Directories still consume two full erase blocks, but now only program the exact on-disk region to store the directory contents. This results in a decent improvement in the amount of data written and read to the device when doing directory operations. Calculating the checksum of dynamically sized data is surprisingly tricky, since the size of the data could also contain errors. For the littlefs, we can assume the data size must fit in an erase block. If the data size is invalid, we can just treat the block as corrupted.

Added proper handling for removing open files Conveniently we previously added a linked-list of files for things like this. This should handle most of the corner cases where files are open during strange operations. This also brings up the point that we aren't doing anything similar for directories and don't even have a dir linked-list. After thinking about it for a while, I've decided to leave out this handling for dirs. It will likely be very complicated, with little gains as directories are less used in embedded systems. Additionally, dirs are only open for reading, and corruption will probably just cause the dir iteration to terminate. If needed, correct handling of open directories can be added later.

Added operations: - append an entry to a directory - find an entry in a directory - iterate over entries in a directory Some to do: - Chaining multiple directory blocks - Recursion on directory operations

Added optional block-level caching This adds caching of the most recent read/program blocks, allowing support of devices that don't have byte-level read+writes, along with reduced device access on devices that do support byte-level read+writes. Note: The current implementation is a bit eager to drop caches where it simplifies the cache layer. This layer is already complex enough. Note: It may be worthwhile to add a compile switch for caching to reduce code size, note sure. Note: This does add a dependency on malloc, which could have a porting layer, but I'm just using the functions from stdlib for now. These can be overwritten with noops if the user controls the system, and keeps things simple for now.

Fixed problem with lookaheads larger than block device Simply limiting the lookahead region to the size of the block device fixes the problem. Also added logic to limit the allocated region and floor to nearest word, since the additional memory couldn't really be used effectively.

// setup lookahead, round down to nearest 32-bits
Fixed issue with aggressively rounding down lookahead configuration The littlefs allows buffers to be passed statically in the case that a system does not have a heap. Unfortunately, this means we can't round up in the case of an unaligned lookahead buffer. Double unfortunately, rounding down after clamping to the block device size could result in a lookahead of zero for block devices < 32 blocks large. The assert in littlefs does catch this case, but rounding down prevents support for < 32 block devices. The solution is to simply require a 32-bit aligned buffer with an assert. This avoids runtime problems while allowing a user to pass in the correct buffer for < 32 block devices. Rounding up can be handled at higher API levels.

Removed clamping to block size in ctz linked-list Initially, I was concerned that the number of pointers in the ctz linked-list could exceed the storage in a block. Long story short this isn't really possible outside of extremely small block sizes. Since clamping impacts the layout of files on disk, removing the block size removed quite a bit of logic and corner cases. Replaced with an assert on block size during initialization. --- Long story long, the minimum block size needed to store all ctz pointers in a filesystem can be found with this formula: B = (w/8)*log2(2^w / (B - 2*(w/8))) where: B = block size in bytes w = pointer width in bits It's not a very pretty formula, but does give us some useful info if we apply some math: min block size: 32 bit ctz linked-list = 104 bytes 64 bit ctz linked-list = 448 bytes For littlefs, 128 bytes is a perfectly reasonable minimum block size.
2017-10-10 23:48:24 +00:00

assert(4*lfs_npw2(0xffffffff / (lfs->cfg->block_size-2*4))

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Added directory list for synchronizing in flight directories As it was, if a user operated on a directory while at the same time iterating over the directory, the directory objects could fall out of sync. In the best case, files may be skipped while removing everything in a file, in the worst case, a very poorly timed directory relocate could be missed. Simple fix is to add the same directory tracking that is currently in use for files, at a small code+complexity cost.

Fixed corner case with immediate exhaustion and lookahead==block_count The previous math for determining if we scanned all of disk wasn't set up correctly in the lfs_mount function. If lookahead == block_count the lfs_alloc function would think we had already searched the entire disk. This is only an issue if we manage to exhaust a block on the first pass after mount, since lfs_alloc_ack resets the lookahead region into a valid state after a succesful block allocation.

Each dir entry is now prefixed with a 32 bit tag: 4b - entry type 4b - data structure 8b - entry len 8b - attribute len 8b - name len A full entry on disk looks a bit like this: [- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|-- elen --|-- alen --|-- nlen --] [ type | elen | alen | nlen | entry | attrs | name ] The actually contents of the attributes section is a bit handwavey until the first attributes are implemented, but to put plans in place: Each attribute will be prefixed with only a byte that indicates the type of attribute. Attributes should be sorted based on portability, since unknown attributes will force attribute parsing to stop.

This does come at the cost of reducing types from 16-bits to 8-bits, but I doubt this will become a problem.

Simplified config Before, the lfs had multiple paths to determine config options: - lfs_config struct passed during initialization - lfs_bd_info struct passed during block device initialization - compile time options This allowed different developers to provide their own needs to the filesystem, such as the block device capabilities and the higher level user's own tweaks. However, this comes with additional complexity and action required when the configurations are incompatible. For now, this has been reduced to all information (including block device function pointers) being passed through the lfs_config struct. We just defer more complicated handling of configuration options to the top level user. This simplifies configuration handling and gives the top level user the responsibility to handle configuration, which they probably would have wanted to do anyways.

Shrinked on-disk directory program size Directories still consume two full erase blocks, but now only program the exact on-disk region to store the directory contents. This results in a decent improvement in the amount of data written and read to the device when doing directory operations. Calculating the checksum of dynamically sized data is surprisingly tricky, since the size of the data could also contain errors. For the littlefs, we can assume the data size must fit in an erase block. If the data size is invalid, we can just treat the block as corrupted.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

// sanity check that fetch works
Added optional block-level caching This adds caching of the most recent read/program blocks, allowing support of devices that don't have byte-level read+writes, along with reduced device access on devices that do support byte-level read+writes. Note: The current implementation is a bit eager to drop caches where it simplifies the cache layer. This layer is already complex enough. Note: It may be worthwhile to add a compile switch for caching to reduce code size, note sure. Note: This does add a dependency on malloc, which could have a porting layer, but I'm just using the functions from stdlib for now. These can be overwritten with noops if the user controls the system, and keeps things simple for now.

// setup free lookahead
Fixed issue with immediate exhaustion and small unaligned storage This was a small hole in the logic that handles initializing the lookahead buffer. To imitate exhaustion (so the block allocator will trigger a scan), the lookahead buffer is rewound a full lookahead and set up to look like it is exhausted. However, unlike normal allocation, this rewind was not kept aligned to a multiple of the scan size, which is limited by both the lookahead buffer and the total storage size. This bug went unnoticed for so long because it only causes problems when the block device is both: 1. Not aligned to the lookahead buffer (not a power of 2) 2. Smaller than the lookahead buffer While this seems like a strange corner case for a block device, this turned out to be very common for internal flash, especially when a handleful of blocks are reserved for code.

lfs->free.begin = -lfs_min(lfs->cfg->lookahead, lfs->cfg->block_count);
lfs->free.off = -lfs->free.begin;
Fixed corner case with immediate exhaustion and lookahead==block_count The previous math for determining if we scanned all of disk wasn't set up correctly in the lfs_mount function. If lookahead == block_count the lfs_alloc function would think we had already searched the entire disk. This is only an issue if we manage to exhaust a block on the first pass after mount, since lfs_alloc_ack resets the lookahead region into a valid state after a succesful block allocation.

Each dir entry is now prefixed with a 32 bit tag: 4b - entry type 4b - data structure 8b - entry len 8b - attribute len 8b - name len A full entry on disk looks a bit like this: [- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|- 8 -|-- elen --|-- alen --|-- nlen --] [ type | elen | alen | nlen | entry | attrs | name ] The actually contents of the attributes section is a bit handwavey until the first attributes are implemented, but to put plans in place: Each attribute will be prefixed with only a byte that indicates the type of attribute. Attributes should be sorted based on portability, since unknown attributes will force attribute parsing to stop.

With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

Moved to brute-force deorphan without parent pointers Removing the dependency to the parent pointer solves many issues with non-atomic updates of children's parent pointers with respect to any move operations.

Added proper handling of orphans Unfortunately, threading all dir blocks in a linked-list did not come without problems. While it's possible to atomically add a dir to the linked list (by adding the new dir into the linked-list position immediately after it's parent, requiring only one atomic update to the parent block), it is not easy to make sure the linked-list is in a state that always allows atomic removal of dirs. The simple solution is to allow this non-atomic removal, with an additional step to remove any orphans that could have been created by a power-loss. This deorphan step is only run if the normal allocator has failed.

// iterate over contents
Shrinked on-disk directory program size Directories still consume two full erase blocks, but now only program the exact on-disk region to store the directory contents. This results in a decent improvement in the amount of data written and read to the device when doing directory operations. Calculating the checksum of dynamically sized data is surprisingly tricky, since the size of the data could also contain errors. For the littlefs, we can assume the data size must fit in an erase block. If the data size is invalid, we can just treat the block as corrupted.

while (dir.off + sizeof(entry.d) <= (0x7fffffff & dir.d.size)-4) {
Added internal check of data written to disk Before, the littlefs relied on the underlying block device to report corruption that occurs when writing data to disk. This requirement is easy to miss or implement incorrectly, since the error detection is only required when a block becomes corrupted, which is very unlikely to happen until late in the block device's lifetime. The littlefs can detect corruption itself by reading back written data. This requires a bit of care to reuse the available buffers, and may rely on checksums to avoid additional RAM requirements. This does have a runtime penalty with the extra read operations, but should make the littlefs much more robust to different implementations.

Added full dir list and rudimentary block allocator In writing the initial allocator, I ran into the rather difficult problem of trying to iterate through the entire filesystem cheaply and with only constant memory consumption (which prohibits recursive functions). The solution was to simply thread all directory blocks onto a massive linked-list that spans the entire filesystem. With the linked-list it was easy to create a traverse function for all blocks in use on the filesystem (which has potential for other utility), and add the rudimentary block allocator using a bit-vector. While the linked-list may add complexity (especially where needing to maintain atomic operations), the linked-list helps simplify what is currently the most expensive operation in the filesystem, with no cost to space (the linked-list can reuse the pointers used for chained directory blocks).

Fixed collection of multiblock directories Moslty just a hole in testing. Dir blocks were not being correctly collected when removing entries from very large files due to forgetting about the tail-bit in the directory block size. The test hole has now been filled. Also added lfs_entry_size to avoid having to repeat that expression since it is a bit ridiculous
2017-09-18 01:36:42 +00:00
dir.off += lfs_entry_size(&entry);
Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.

Additionally, these caches can be used for possible speed improvements. This is left up to the user to optimize for their use cases.

Added support for handling corrupted blocks This provides a limited form of wear leveling. While wear is not actually balanced across blocks, the filesystem can recover from corrupted blocks and extend the lifetime of a device nearly as much as dynamic wear leveling. For use-cases where wear is important, it would be better to use a full form of dynamic wear-leveling at the block level. (or consider a logging filesystem). Corrupted block handling was simply added on top of the existing logic in place for the filesystem, so it's a bit more noodly than it may have to be, but it gets the work done.

Refactored deduplicate/deorphan step to single deorphan step Deduplication and deorphan steps aren't required under indentical conditions, but they can be processed in the same iteration of the filesystem. Since lfs_alloc (requires deorphan) occurs on most write calls to the filesystem (requires deduplication), it was simpler to just compine the steps into a single lfs_deorphan step. Also traded out the places where lfs_rename/lfs_remove just defer operations to the deorphan step. This adds a bit of code, but also significantly speeds up directory operations.

Moved to brute-force deorphan without parent pointers Removing the dependency to the parent pointer solves many issues with non-atomic updates of children's parent pointers with respect to any move operations. However, this comes with an embarrassingly terrible runtime as the only other option is to exhaustively check every dir entry to find a child's parent. Fortunately, deorphaning should be a relatively rare operation.

Added proper handling of orphans Unfortunately, threading all dir blocks in a linked-list did not come without problems. While it's possible to atomically add a dir to the linked list (by adding the new dir into the linked-list position immediately after it's parent, requiring only one atomic update to the parent block), it is not easy to make sure the linked-list is in a state that always allows atomic removal of dirs. The simple solution is to allow this non-atomic removal, with an additional step to remove any orphans that could have been created by a power-loss. This deorphan step is only run if the normal allocator has failed.

// check entries for moves

Added atomic move using dirty tag in entry type The "move problem" has been present in littlefs for a while, but I haven't come across a solution worth implementing for various reasons. The problem is simple: how do we move directory entries across directories atomically? Since multiple directory entries are involved, we can't rely entirely on the atomic block updates. It ends up being a bit of a puzzle. To make the problem more complicated, any directory block update can fail due to wear, and cause the directory block to need to be relocated. This happens rarely, but brings a large number of corner cases. --- The solution in this patch is simple: 1. Mark source as "moving" 2. Copy source to destination 3. Remove source If littlefs ever runs into a "moving" entry, that means a power loss occured during a move. Either the destination entry exists or it doesn't. In this case we just search the entire filesystem for the destination entry. This is expensive, however the chance of a power loss during a move is relatively low.
