Abstract
This paper describes a work-in-progress to design and implement a transactional metadata journal for the Linux ext2fs filesystem. We review the problem of recovering filesystems after a crash, and describe a design intended to increase ext2fs’s speed and reliability of crash recovery by adding a transactional journal to the filesystem.
