Detailed Description

Mount options for the Journalling Flash File System, Version 2 (JFFS2).

The application must provide flash device geometry information and flash device operations in the flash control structure rtems_jffs2_flash_control.

The application can optionally provide a compressor control structure to enable data compression using the selected compression algorithm.

The application must enable JFFS2 support with rtems_filesystem_register() or CONFIGURE_FILESYSTEM_JFFS2 via <rtems/confdefs.h>.

An example mount with a simple memory based flash device simulation follows. The zlib is used for as the compressor.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ RTEMS_JFFS2_FORCE_GARBAGE_COLLECTION

#define RTEMS_JFFS2_FORCE_GARBAGE_COLLECTION   _IO('F', 3)

IO control to force a garbage collection in a JFFS2 filesystem instance.

Use this operation with care since it may wear out your flash.

◆ RTEMS_JFFS2_GET_INFO

#define RTEMS_JFFS2_GET_INFO   _IOR('F', 1, rtems_jffs2_info)

IO control to get the JFFS2 filesystem instance information.

See also
rtems_jffs2_info.

◆ RTEMS_JFFS2_ON_DEMAND_GARBAGE_COLLECTION

#define RTEMS_JFFS2_ON_DEMAND_GARBAGE_COLLECTION   _IO('F', 2)

IO control to perform an on demand garbage collection in a JFFS2 filesystem instance.

This operation is intended to be used by an optional garbage collection thread. See rtems_jffs2_flash_control::trigger_garbage_collection.
