文件系统类型汇总

The following lists identify, characterize, and link to more thorough information oncomputer file systems.

Many older operating systems support only their one "native" file system, which does not bear any name apart from the name of the operating system itself.

File systems optimized for flash memory, solid state media[edit]

Main article: Flash file system

Solid state media, like flash memory, are similar to disks in their interfaces, but have different problems. On low level, they require special handling such aswear leveling and different error detection and correction algorithms. Typically a device such as solid-state disk handles such operations internally and therefore a regular file system can be used. However, for certain specialized installations (embedded systems, industrial applications) a file system optimized for plain flash memory is needed.

• CASL is a filesystem designed byNimble Storage that uses solid-state devices to cache traditional hard disk drives.

Record-oriented file systems[edit]

In record-oriented file systems files are stored as a collection of records. They are typically associated with mainframe and minicomputer operating systems. Programs read and write whole records, rather than bytes or arbitrary byte ranges, and can seek to a record boundary but not within records. The more sophisticated record-oriented file systems have more in common with simpledatabases than with other file systems.

• Files-11 – early versions were record-oriented; support for "streams" was added later
• Michigan Terminal System (MTS) - provides "line files" where record lengths and line numbers are associated as metadata with each record in the file, lines can be added, replaced, updated with the same or different length records, and deleted anywhere in the file without the need to read and rewrite the entire file.^[7]
• OS4000 for GEC's OS4000 operating system, on theGEC 4000 series minicomputers
• A FAT12 and FAT16 (and FAT32) extension to support database-like file types random file, direct file, keyed file and sequential file in Digital ResearchFlexOS, IBM4680 OS and Toshiba 4690 OS.^[8] The record size is stored on a file-by-file basis in special entries in the directory table.^[9]
• Sequential access methods: Basic sequential access method (BSAM), Basic partitioned access method (BPAM) and Queued sequential access method (QSAM) – also for IBM's z/OS and z/VSE operating systems; see Access methods and Data set (IBM mainframe) for more examples

• Virtual storage access method (VSAM) – for IBM'sz/OS andz/VSE operating systems

Shared-disk file systems[edit]

Shared-disk file systems (also called shared-storage file systems, SAN file system, Clustered file system or even cluster file systems) are primarily used in astorage area network where all nodes directly access the block storage where the file system is located. This makes it possible for nodes to fail without affecting access to the file system from the other nodes. Shared-disk file systems are normally used in ahigh-availability cluster together with storage on hardware RAID. Shared-disk file systems normally do not scale over 64 or 128 nodes.

Shared-disk file systems may be symmetric where metadata is distributed among the nodes or asymmetric with centralized metadata servers.

The distribution attributes are stored on a file-by-file basis in special entries in the directory table.^[13][14]

Distributed parallel file systems[edit]

Distributed parallel file systems stripe data over multiple servers for high performance. They are normally used inhigh-performance computing (HPC).

Distributed parallel fault-tolerant file systems[edit]

Distributed file systems, which also are parallel and fault tolerant, stripe and replicate data over multiple servers for high performance and to maintaindata integrity. Even if a server fails no data is lost. The file systems are used in bothhigh-performance computing (HPC) and high-availability clusters.

All file systems listed here focus on high availability, scalability and high performance unless otherwise stated below.

• mhddfs - Join several filesystems together to form a single larger one
• mini fo (The mini fanout overlay file system) – Redirects modifying operations to a writeable location called "storage directory", and leaving the original data in the "base directory" untouched. When reading, the file system merges the modified and original data so that only the newest versions will appear. Most prominently used inOpenWrt^[19]
• MVFS – MultiVersion File System, proprietary, used byRational ClearCase.
• MTFS – stackable file system, reliability improvement mechanism for Lustre and other file systems based on replication.
• nntpfs (netnews)
• ParFiSys (Experimental parallel file system formassively parallel processing)
• pramfs - Protected and Persistent RAM Filesystem
• RAIF Redundant Array of Independent Filesystems - stackable RAID-like file system
• romfs
• SODA: a Lease-based Consistent Distributed File System^[20] - (early 1990s)
• SquashFS (compressed read-only)
• SysmanFS (based on FUSE, a virtual file system for cluster system management)
• UMSDOS,UVFAT - FAT file systems extended to store permissions and metadata (and in the case of UVFAT,VFAT long file names), used for Linux
• UnionFS - stackable unification file system, which can appear to merge the contents of several directories (branches), while keeping their physical content separate
• Venti - Plan 9 de-duplicated storage used byFossil.
• wikifs (Plan 9) (wiki wiki)
• WDK.VFS -SiteAdmin CMS Virtual File System introduced by Evgenios Skitsanos
• Datalight Reliance - transactional file system for 32-bit embedded systems fromDatalight, Inc.
• ERTFS ProPlus64 - it comes with integrated Failsafe operation, it contains a default journaling mode.
• WBFS - Wii Backup FileSystem
• whefs - Embedded Filesystem is an open source C library implementing an embedded/embeddable filesystem.

Pseudo- and virtual file systems[edit]

• devfs – Virtual file system in Unix-like operating systems for managing devices on-the-fly
• debugfs –Virtual file system in Linux for accessing and controlling kernel debugging.
• procfs – Pseudo-file system, used to access kernel information about processes
• tmpfs – in-memory temporary file system (on Linux platforms).
• specfs – Special File System for device files
• sysfs – Virtual file system in Unix-like operating systems holding information about buses, devices, firmware, filesystems, etc.
• WinFS – Windows Future Storage, was planned as the successor to NTFS for Windows Vista.

Encrypted file systems[edit]

• eCryptfs - a stacked cryptographic file system in the Linux kernel since 2.6.19
• Secure Shell File System (SSHFS) - locally mount a remote directory on a server using only asecure shell login.
• EncFS, GPLEncrypted file system in user-space
• Rubberhose filesystem
• PhoneBookFS
• Solid File System - (SolFS) cross-platform single-file virtual file system with encryption and compression
• EFS – Encrypted file system forMicrosoft Windows systems and AIX. An extension of NTFS
• FSFS - Fast Secure File System
• ZFS Encryption Support
• TeaSafe. A container-based encrypted filesystem supporting AES, Serpent and Twofish ciphers.

File system interfaces[edit]

These are not really file systems; they allow access to file systems from an operating system standpoint.

• FUSE (file system in userspace, likeLUFS but better maintained)
• LUFS (Linux userland file system - seems to be abandoned in favour of FUSE)
• VFS Virtual Filesystem
• Callback File System - the SDK to build custom filesystems and plug them to Windows OS.
