 For a '''file_cache''', the GIET_VM implements a WRITE-BACK policy. The data are always modified in the cache. In case of miss, new clusters are allocated to the target file, the cache is updated from the block device, and the data are modified in the cache, but not in the block device. The modified clusters are written on the block device only when the file is closed, using the dirty flag implemented in each cluster descriptor.
