Abstract
A File SeGment (FSG) subsystem of a PDE (parallel database extension) provides services for managing and allocating secondary memory such as cache, providing data commits and retrieval operations on disk, and providing routines to perform disk I/O (Input/Output) and other memory operations for a file system. The FSG subsystem provides for the determination of the amount of cache that may be utilized, locking that portion of cache, using a buddy memory management system to manage the cache, using one or more hash aging queues to determine when to free up cache, permitting preloads of data into the cache, and asynchronously accepting an I/O completion action from a user prior to completion of an operation and performing such an I/O completion action.
