❖ File Management
Aims of file management subsystem:
organise layout of data within the filesystem
handle mapping from database ID to file address
transfer blocks of data between buffer pool and filesystem
also attempts to handle file access error problems (retry)
Builds higher-level operations on top of OS file operations.

❖ File Management (cont)
Typical file operations provided by the operating system:
fd = open(fileName,mode)
// open a named file for reading/writing/appending
close(fd)
// close an open file, via its descriptor
nread = read(fd, buf, nbytes)
// attempt to read data from file into buffer
nwritten = write(fd, buf, nbytes)
// attempt to write data from buffer to file
lseek(fd, offset, seek_type)
// move file pointer to relative/absolute file offset
fsync(fd)
// flush contents of file buffers to disk

❖ DBMS File Organisation
How is data for DB objects arranged in the file system?
Different DBMSs make different choices, e.g.
by-pass the file system and use a raw disk partition
have a single very large file containing all DB data
have several large files, with tables spread across them
have multiple data files, one for each table
have multiple files for each table
etc.
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [3/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-file DBMS
Consider a single file for the entire database (e.g. SQLite)
Objects are allocated to regions (segments) of the file.
If an object grows too large for allocated segment, allocate an extension.
What happens to allocated space when objects are removed?

<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-file DBMS (cont)
Allocating space in Unix files is easy:
simply seek to the place you want and write the data
if nothing there already, data is appended to the file
if something there already, it gets overwritten
If the seek goes way beyond the end of the file:
Unix does not (yet) allocate disk space for the “hole”
allocates disk storage only when data is written there
With the above, a disk/file manager is easy to implement.
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [5/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-file Storage Manager
Consider the following simple single-file DBMS layout:
E.g.
SpaceMap = [ (0,10,U), (10,10,U), (20,600,U), (620,100,U), (720,20,F) ]
TableMap = [ (“employee”,20,500), (“project”,620,40) ]

<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-file Storage Manager (cont)
Each file segment consists of a number fixed-size blocks
The following data/constant definitions are useful
#define PAGESIZE 2048 // bytes per page
typedef long PageId; // PageId is block index
// pageOffset=PageId*PAGESIZE
typedef char *Page; // pointer to page/block buffer
Typical PAGESIZE values: 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192

<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-file Storage Manager (cont)
Possible storage manager data structures for opened DBs & Tables
typedef struct DBrec {
char *dbname; // copy of database name
int fd; // the database file
SpaceMap map; // map of free/used areas
TableMap names; // map names to areas + sizes
} *DB;
typedef struct Relrec {
char *relname; // copy of table name
int start; // page index of start of table data
int npages; // number of pages of table data
…
} *Rel;

❖ Example: Scanning a Relation
With the above disk manager, a query like
select name from Employee
might be implemented as
DB db = openDatabase(“myDB”);
Rel r = openRelation(db,”Employee”);
Page buffer = malloc(PAGESIZE*sizeof(char));
for (int i = 0; i < r->npages; i++) {
PageId pid = r->start+i;
get_page(db, pid, buffer);
for each tuple in buffer {
get tuple data and extract name
add (name) to result tuples
}
}

❖ Single-File Storage Manager
// start using DB, buffer meta-data
DB openDatabase(char *name) {
DB db = new(struct DBrec);
db->dbname = strdup(name);
db->fd = open(name,O_RDWR);
db->map = readSpaceTable(db->fd);
db->names = readNameTable(db->fd);
return db;
}
// stop using DB and update all meta-data
void closeDatabase(DB db) {
writeSpaceTable(db->fd,db->map);
writeNameTable(db->fd,db->map);
fsync(db->fd);
close(db->fd);
free(db->dbname);
free(db);
}
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [10/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-File Storage Manager (cont)
// set up struct describing relation
Rel openRelation(DB db, char *rname) {
Rel r = new(struct Relrec);
r->relname = strdup(rname);
// get relation data from map tables
r->start = …;
r->npages = …;
return r;
}
// stop using a relation
void closeRelation(Rel r) {
free(r->relname);
free(r);
}

<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-File Storage Manager (cont)
// assume that Page = byte[PageSize]
// assume that PageId = block number in file
// read page from file into memory buffer
void get_page(DB db, PageId p, Page buf) {
lseek(db->fd, p*PAGESIZE, SEEK_SET);
read(db->fd, buf, PAGESIZE);
}
// write page from memory buffer to file
void put_page(Db db, PageId p, Page buf) {
lseek(db->fd, p*PAGESIZE, SEEK_SET);
write(db->fd, buf, PAGESIZE);
}

❖ Single-File Storage Manager (cont)
Managing contents of space mapping table can be complex:
// assume an array of (offset,length,status) records
// allocate n new pages
PageId allocate_pages(int n) {
if (no existing free chunks are large enough) {
int endfile = lseek(db->fd, 0, SEEK_END);
addNewEntry(db->map, endfile, n);
} else {
grab “worst fit” chunk
split off unused section as new chunk
}
// note that file itself is not changed
}
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [13/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Single-File Storage Manager (cont)
Similar complexity for freeing chunks
// drop n pages starting from p
void deallocate_pages(PageId p, int n) {
if (no adjacent free chunks) {
markUnused(db->map, p, n);
} else {
merge adjacent free chunks
compress mapping table
}
// note that file itself is not changed
}
Changes take effect when closeDatabase() executed.
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [14/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Multiple-file Disk Manager
Most DBMSs don’t use a single large file for all data.
They typically provide:
multiple files partitioned physically or logically
mapping from DB-level objects to files (e.g. via catalog meta-data)
Precise file structure varies between individual DBMSs.
Using multiple files (one file per relation) can be easier, e.g.
adding a new relation
extending the size of a relation
computing page offsets within a relation
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [15/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Multiple-file Disk Manager (cont)
Example of single-file vs multiple-file:
Consider how you would compute file offset of page[i] in table[1] …
COMP9315 21T1 ♢ File Management ♢ [16/19]
<< ∧ >>
❖ Multiple-file Disk Manager (cont)
Structure of PageId for data pages in such systems …
If system uses one file per table, PageId contains:
relation indentifier (which can be mapped to filename)
page number (to identify page within the file)
If system uses several files per table, PageId contains:
relation identifier
file identifier (combined with relid, gives filename)
page number (to identify page within the file)

❖ DBMS File Parameters
Our view of relations in DBMSs:
a relation is a set of r tuples, with average size R bytes
the tuples are stored in b data pages on disk
each page has size B bytes and contains up to c tuples
data is transferred disk↔memory in whole pages
cost of disk↔memory transfer Tr , Tw dominates other costs
