194The following code snippet represents logical to physical mapping in a file system. pos is the logical byte number and index block is an index block.
logical_block_no = pos / 4096;
offset_in_block = pos % 4096;
physical_block_no = index_block[logical_block_no];
Assuming that a block number takes 32 bits, what is the maximum file size?- A1MB
- B2MB
- C4MB
- D16MB
195The two main approaches for keeping track of free disk blocks are:
- ABuffering and polling
- BBitmap and linked list of free blocks
- CParity and RAID
- Di-node and File Allocation Table
196The FAT-32 file system has 28-bit block numbers and 32-bit sector number. Given that the sector size is 512 bytes and the block size is 64 sectors, what is the maximum partition size?
- A1 TB
- B2 TB
- C4 TB
- D8 TB
197(Mark all that apply). Which of the following items is/are stored in the global open-file table?
- Ai-node number
- Bfile access mode (e.g. read-only)
- Ccurrent position in file
- Dquota pointer
198Consider a file system with 20-byte disk blocks. A linked list is used to keep track of the free blocks. How many blocks would the linked list take when there are 10 free blocks? Assume that the block number takes four bytes and that each node in the list is one disk block and contains a pointer to the next node.
Linked-list size = [blank_start]________[blank_end] blocks- A3
199Consider an i-node that contains nine direct entries, two single indirect entries, and four double indirect entries. Assume the block size is 512 bytes and that the block number takes four bytes. How many index blocks are needed when the file is at its maximum size?
Number of index blocks = [blank_start]______[blank_end] blocks- A518
