Abstract

Techniques for using data logs with bonded page descriptors (PDs) in storage systems. The techniques include, in response to a write request from a storage client, performing, in a log structured data log, a single object allocation for a bonded page descriptor (PD)-page buffer (PB) pair, storing and persisting, in a PB of the bonded PD-PB pair, user data specified by the write request, and storing and persisting, in a PD object of the bonded PD-PB pair, metadata related to the user data. The techniques include, once the user data and related MD are stored and persisted in the bonded PD-PB pair, sending an acknowledgment message to the storage client, and de-staging, flushing, or transferring, in the background, the user data and/or related MD from the bonded PD-PB pair to a storage object. By performing a single object allocation, processing costs related to performing the object allocation can be reduced.
