    摘要: Described are embodiments which allow token-based file operations. The client may request a special offload file operation that is formatted according to a file access protocol. The file operation may be an offload read operation or an offload write operation. In an offload read operation, the client requests that data be logically read from a stored file, or a portion thereof. In response, the file server provides a response that includes a token that represents the logically read data. In some embodiments, the file server may return a response with a token that represents less than all of the requested data if for some reason it cannot provide a token that represents all of the data. The token can then be used by the client in a subsequent offload write operation. In embodiments, the tokens represent immutable data that can be safely and securely used across servers and clients.

    摘要: The storage of data sets in a storage set (e.g., data sets written to hard disk drives comprising a RAID array) may diminish the performance of the storage set through non-sequential writes, particularly if the storage devices promptly write data sets that are followed by sequentially following data sets. Additionally, storage sets may exhibit inconsistencies due to non-atomic writes of data sets and verifiers (e.g., checksums) and an intervening failure, such as an occurrence of the RAID write hole. Instead, data sets and verifiers may first be written to a stored on the nonvolatile media of a storage device before being committed to the storage set. Such writes may be sequentially written to the journal, irrespective of the locations of the data sets in the storage set; and recovery of a failure may simply involve re-committing the consistent records in the journal to correct incomplete writes to the storage set.

    摘要: The representation of storage devices on computers (e.g., as logical volumes) may be complicated by the pooling of multiple storage devices in order to apply redundancy plans such as mirroring and checksumming. Presented herein is a storage device driver configured to operate as a storage device interface generating representations of the storage regions of the storage devices; to claim those regions as a storage controller; and to expose pooled storage regions as logical disks. Additionally, the storage device driver may support the inclusion of storage devices in a cluster, comprising nodes that may be appointed as managers of the storage pool configuration; as managers of the storage devices; as owners having exclusive read/write access to the storage pool or cluster resources; and as cluster resource writers having exclusive write access to a cluster resource. The nodes of the cluster may interoperate to share the storage devices while avoiding write conflicts.

    摘要: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to an offload provider. In aspects, an offload provider may provide a token that represents data. The offload provider may be expected to ensure that the data the token represents will not change while the token is valid. The offload provider may take actions to ensure the immutability of the data. The actions may be taken, for example, in conjunction with receiving an offload read and/or offload write, and/or in conjunction with receiving another write that, if allowed to proceed, would otherwise change the data represented by the token.

    摘要: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to offload reads and writes. In aspects, a requestor that seeks to transfer data sends a request for a representation of the data. In response, the requestor receives one or more tokens that represent the data. The requestor may then provide one or more of these tokens to a component with a request to write data represented by the one or more tokens. In some exemplary applications, the component may use the one or more tokens to identify the data and may then read the data or logically write the data without additional interaction with the requestor. Tokens may be invalidated by request or based on other factors.

    摘要: An operating system copies data from memory pages into a paging file on disk, in order to free up space in the memory. A mechanism is disclosed that causes the data to be encrypted as it is copied into the paging file, thereby protecting the paged data from unauthorized (or otherwise undesired) observation. The data that is stored in the paging file is encrypted with a session key, that is generated shortly after the machine on which the paging file exists is started. The session key, which is used both for encryption and decryption of the paging file data, is stored in volatile memory, so that the key is not persisted across boots of the machine. Since the key is not persisted across boots, old paging file data that was stored prior to the most recent boot cannot be recovered in clear text, thereby protecting the data from observation.
