Unix V6 file system has limitation of 16MB on file size. Use single unused bit of the flags field to increase file size support to 32MB. Develop command line interface that will allow Unix user access to the file system of foreign operating system, which is modified version of Unix Version 6. In other words, create and maintain content of file system up to the size of 32MB and provide user interface to manipulate and access the content.
gcc fsaccess.c -ofs
./fs file_system_name
- initfs 5000 400 - initialize file system with 5000 blocks and 400 i-nodes. 65535 is maximum number of blocks. See below for explanation
- cpin external_file internal_file - copy content of external_file into internal_file. Internal file name size should be less than 14 chr
- cpout internal_file external_file - copy content of internal_file into external_file
- mkdir dir_name - create directory with dir_name. Directory name size should be less than 14 chr
- Rm internal_file - remove file and mark its blocks as free
- q - exit
- exit - exit (same as "q")
- File system size is limited to 65535 blocks of 512 Bytes each. This is due to maximum number that can be stored in unsigned short which is 2 bytes long
- File name is limited to 14 characters
See docs/Example_commands_run.txt - for usage example
