EXT4文件系统学习（10）VFS之磁盘结构Group和superblock

direntry建立了各级目录和文件之间的联系，inode建立了文件与数据之间联系，但这还不够，还需要记录inode和数据块从哪里开始从哪里结束，以及哪些是空闲的，这样才能正确的分配文件。

Group

块组是一个逻辑概念，把一个分区分成若干个组，用来限制文件的数据块不要过于散落，尽量保证一个文件的数据块在一个组，这样可以提高读写效率，

格式化一个ext4文件系统后在磁盘上的结构：

Group 0: (Blocks 1-8192)
  Primary superblock at 1, Group descriptors at 2-2
  Reserved GDT blocks at 3-246
  Block bitmap at 247 (+246)
  Inode bitmap at 251 (+250)
  Inode table at 255-499 (+254)
  5481 free blocks, 1916 free inodes, 7 directories
  Free blocks: 1268-2657, 2866-4096, 5327-6112, 6119-8192
  Free inodes: 39, 46-1960

超级块

超级块记录着一个分区的整体信息，有多少inode，多少个组，多少个block数据块，多少个空闲块。

Group descriptors组描述符记录了这个组中的inode数量，空闲块数量等信息。

Block bitmap是数据块的位图，记录着数据块的状态。

Inode bitmap是inode的位图，记录着inode的状态。

磁盘超级块结构如下：

ext4_super_block与磁盘上面的超级块数据基本是对应的，可直接读出到结构体内存。

组描述符在磁盘上的格式如下：

/*
 * Structure of a blocks group descriptor
 */
struct ext4_group_desc
{
	__le32	bg_block_bitmap_lo;	/* Blocks bitmap block */表示bmap在这个组的那一块
	__le32	bg_inode_bitmap_lo;	/* Inodes bitmap block */表示imap在这个组的那一块
	__le32	bg_inode_table_lo;	/* Inodes table block */这个组的inode所在起始块号
	__le16	bg_free_blocks_count_lo;/* Free blocks count */空闲块数量
	__le16	bg_free_inodes_count_lo;/* Free inodes count */空闲inode数量
	__le16	bg_used_dirs_count_lo;	/* Directories count */
	__le16	bg_flags;		/* EXT4_BG_flags (INODE_UNINIT, etc) */
	__le32  bg_exclude_bitmap_lo;   /* Exclude bitmap for snapshots */
	__le16  bg_block_bitmap_csum_lo;/* crc32c(s_uuid+grp_num+bbitmap) LE */
	__le16  bg_inode_bitmap_csum_lo;/* crc32c(s_uuid+grp_num+ibitmap) LE */
	__le16  bg_itable_unused_lo;	/* Unused inodes count */
	__le16  bg_checksum;		/* crc16(sb_uuid+group+desc) */
	__le32	bg_block_bitmap_hi;	/* Blocks bitmap block MSB */
	__le32	bg_inode_bitmap_hi;	/* Inodes bitmap block MSB */
	__le32	bg_inode_table_hi;	/* Inodes table block MSB */
	__le16	bg_free_blocks_count_hi;/* Free blocks count MSB */
	__le16	bg_free_inodes_count_hi;/* Free inodes count MSB */
	__le16	bg_used_dirs_count_hi;	/* Directories count MSB */
	__le16  bg_itable_unused_hi;    /* Unused inodes count MSB */
	__le32  bg_exclude_bitmap_hi;   /* Exclude bitmap block MSB */
	__le16  bg_block_bitmap_csum_hi;/* crc32c(s_uuid+grp_num+bbitmap) BE */
	__le16  bg_inode_bitmap_csum_hi;/* crc32c(s_uuid+grp_num+ibitmap) BE */
	__u32   bg_reserved;
};

组描述符占用64字节，一个块占用4KB，所以每个组里面的组描述符块保存了所有组描述符。应该是为了防止数据损坏进行修复使用。

超级块的备份会在2n-1的组里面，防止数据损坏进行修复。
