Abstract
Constructing flash memory based storage, FTL (Flash Translation Layer) manages mapping between logical address and physical
address. Since FTL writes every data to new region by its mapping method, the previous data is not overwritten by new write
operation. When a journaling file system is set up upon FTL, it duplicates data between the journal region and its home location
for the file system consistency. However, the duplication degrades the performance. In this paper, we present an efficient
journal remap-based FTL. The proposed FTL, called JFTL, eliminates the redundant data duplication by remapping the journal region data path to home location of file system. Thus,
our JFTL can prevent from degrading write performance of file system while preserving file system consistency.
