What is CrashMonkey and ACE: Systematically Testing File-System Crash Consistency about?
We present C rash M onkey and A ce , a set of tools to systematically find crash-consistency bugs in Linux file systems. C rash M onkey is a record-and-replay framework which tests a given workload on the target file system by __simulating__ power-loss crashes while the workload is being executed, and checking if the file system recovers to a correct state after each crash. A ce automatically generates all the workloads to be run on the target file system. We build C rash M onkey and A ce based on a new approach to test file-system crash consistency: __bounded black-box crash testing__ ( __B__ ^3^ ). __B__ ^3^ tests the file system in a black-box manner using workloads of file-system operations. Since the space of possible workloads is infinite, __B__ ^3^ bounds this space based on parameters such as the number of file-system operations or which operations to include, and exhaustively generates workloads within this bounded space. __B__ ^3^ builds upon insights derived from our study of crash-consistency bugs reported in Linux file systems in the last 5 years. We observed that most reported bugs can be reproduced using small workloads of three or fewer file-system operations on a n
