Grid synchronization method for fault tolerant computer system based on socket

Abstract

The invention discloses a network synchronization method based on a socket fault-tolerant computing system. A monitor is set on a socket interface layer of a Linux network architecture through modifying a Linux operating system so as to monitor the socket communication correlation kernel function. When the duplication redundancy schedule performs the network communication through the socket way, the communication operation is intercepted at the socket interface layer and the synchronization logic is triggered. The synchronization logic is implemented by reconstructing the socket series kernelfunctions, and the duplication schedule enters the synchronization point and completes the synchronizing process when implementing the reconstructed kernel functions. The implementation of the methodis simple without special custom hardware. The reconstructed operating system is suitable for common hardware architectures with strong commonality. The synchronization process is initiatively completed by the operating system, and is fully transparent to the upper application. The invention has better expandability, and can be expanded to a multimode redundancy system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of computers, relates to fault-tolerant technology and synchronization technology, in particular to a network synchronization method of a socket-based fault-tolerant computer system.
