发明名称 DENSE TREE VOLUME METADATA UPDATE LOGGING AND CHECKPOINTING
摘要 In one embodiment, a node of a cluster executing a storage input/output (I/O) stack having a volume layer, stores a multi-level dense tree metadata structure. Each level of the dense tree metadata structure includes volume metadata entries for storing volume metadata. One or more non-volatile logs (NVLogs) are updated. The one or more NVLogs including a volume layer log configured to record changes to the volume metadata, wherein volume metadata entries inserted into a top-level of the dense tree metadata structure are recorded in the volume layer log. The node writes volume metadata entries from the volume layer log to one or more storage devices to be stored as extents.
