About

This project is an implementation of a block file system for the course "Operating Systems". This program makes it possible to store multiple files in a single file mimicking a drive. The block size is 4096B (4092B of content and 4B for the next address), and a file descriptor is 40B. Only one file can be stored in one block, meaning that there might occur a small fragmentation since some blocks might not be full. The permitted operations are:

• creating a disk with given name and capacity
• removing a disk with given name
• listing all files on the disk
• printing the content map of the disk
• copying a file from and onto the disk
• remove a file with given name from the disk

How to use

To compile the program, simply run the following command:

gcc -o mfs filesystem.c

From there, the possibilites are endless. You can check the detailed usage by running:

./mfs --help
