Research on File System Event Monitoring in Android Platform

Abstract:

Android is a standard and popular platform of various smart phone. Security thread is a major problem to smart phone. File system event monitoring is essential for many types of programs ranging from file managers to security tools. In this paper, we make research on file system event monitoring. Our approach involves file nodes monitor by Android API and Linux native system call. We compare different features between them. It shows that each method has its benefit and limitation. Linux system calls method outperforms API in flexibility and scalability. But it has its un-convenience to user for its page alignment. A comprehensive method is proposed to take advantage of significant performance gains.
