EXT2/3 Design

Data Structure
EXT2/3 Design

Direct blocks and indirect blocks
EXT2 directory
BTRFS(Buffer File System)

The main Btrfs features include:

Extent based file storage (2^64 max file size)

Space efficient packing of small files

Space efficient indexed directories

Dynamic inode allocation

Writable snapshots (clone)

Subvolumes (separate internal filesystem roots)

Checksums on data and metadata (multiple algorithms available)

Compression

Support SSD (Solid State Disk)
BTRFS Design

Btree Data Structure
struct btrfs_header {
u8 csum[BTRFS_CSUM_SIZE];
u8 fsid[BTRFS_FSID_SIZE];
__le64 bytenr;
__le64 flags;
u8 chunk_tree_uuid[BTRFS_UUID_SIZE];
__le64 generation;
__le64 owner;
__le32 nritems;
u8 level;
}
struct btrfs_disk_key {
__le64 objectid;
u8 type;
__le64 offset;
}
struct btrfs_item {
struct btrfs_disk_key key;
__le32 offset;
__le32 size;
}
