Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: a host device configured to implement a file system, wherein the file system is configured to; a content processor distinct from said applications configured to perform out-of-band detection of said event records; wherein members of at least a subset of said applications are not configured for direct interprocess communication with one another or with said content processor, and wherein to perform out-of-band detection of a particular one of said event records, said content processor is configured to detect said particular event record asynchronously with respect to storage of the particular event record; wherein said content processor is further configured to perform a transaction dependent upon said performing out-of-band detection of at least some of said event records, wherein said transaction is dependent upon said file system content access events indicated by said at least some of said event records, and wherein said transaction is further dependent upon the operation of two or more of said at least a subset of said applications and is further dependent upon said file system content; and wherein said content processor is further configured to notify a query system of a given one of said file system content access events, in response to which said query system is configured to maintain referential integrity of n index of said file system content with respect to said given file system content access event.
