The complexity of advanced disk array architectures makes accurate representation necessary, arduous, and error-prone. In this paper, we present RAIDframe, an array framework that separates architectural policy from execution mechanism. RAIDframe facilitations rapid prototyping of new RAID architec- tures by localizing modifications and providing libraries of existing architectures to extend. In addition, RAIDframe implemented architectures run the same code as a synthetic and trace-driven simulator, as a user-level application managing raw disks, and as a Digital Unix device-driver capable of mounting a filesystem. Evaluation shows that RAIDframe performance is equivalent to less complex array imple- mentations and thance is equivalent to less complex array implementations and that case studies of RAID levels 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, and parity declustering achieve expected performance. |
