Abstract: Technologies are described for re-configurable non-volatile memory structures and systems for FPGA, as well as, non-volatile static random access memory (nvSRAM) cells with multiple non-volatile memory (NVM) bits. Proposed structures may quickly switch/reconfigure look-up tables (LUTs) and/or reconfigure FPGA routings. Memory structures according to some embodiments may reduce the switching/reconfiguring times to one or a few clock cycles. Thus, fast or real time FPGA reconfiguration is enabled, one LUT may serve multiple functions, thereby, a fraction of current FPGAs may be used to perform multi-functions, which may substantially reduce FPGA chip areas. Structures according to embodiments may further provide simple routing for entire system by re-configuration and enhanced data security by avoiding external data transmission.

Abstract: In order to write data to a storage system accessible with a first and second file system, a manager receives a data write request associated with a file. The manager determines if a function supported by the second file system is needed to complete the write request. If so, the file is opened and extended with the first file system. The file is then opened and written to by the second file system. The file is truncated by the first file system, and closed by both file systems. If the second file system function is not needed, the file is opened, written, and closed by the first file system. In order to read data from a storage system using a function supported by the second file system, the second file system's cached storage system index is updated, and then the file is opened, read, and closed by the second file system.
