Write-Ahead File System (WAFS) v1.0 Release Notice. The WAFS source code is now available for download at http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~stein/wafs/ WAFS is a simple file system designed to act as a logging service for kernel subsystems. Reads and writes are keyed by log-sequence number (LSN). All writes to WAFS are sequential. Kernel subsystems can use this LSN service to enforce write-ahead logging and guarantee consistency. Potential clients of the WAFS include, but are not limited to; a journaling file system, a database system, and a block hash logging service. The list of potential WAFS clients is bounded by the human imagination. The WAFS is built within FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE.
