Abstract
In a method for offloading data processing into computational storage, a request to offload data computation into computational storage is received. One or more transactions to encapsulate the request are prepared. One or more write requests are generated based on the one or more transactions, and the one or more transactions are stored into one or more journals. A set of transactions is extracted from the one or more journals. A subset of the set of transactions is received at an eBPF subsystem, where the subset corresponds to one or more computation requests. Information from a file is extracted, where the information corresponds to one or more logical block addresses (LBAs). The one or more computation requests are performed on the one or more LBAs using the subset of the set of transactions, and an indication corresponding to the performed computation requests is generated.
