JFFS2 options and usage.
-----------------------
JFFS2 in U-Boot is a read only implementation of the file system in
Linux with the same name. To use JFFS2 define CFG_CMD_JFFS2.
The module adds three new commands.
fsload - load binary file from a file system image
fsinfo - print information about file systems
ls - list files in a directory
There is two ways for JFFS2 to find the disk. The default way uses
the flash_info structure to find the start of a JFFS2 disk (called
partition in the code) and you can change where the partition is with
two defines.
CFG_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK
defined the first flash bank to use
CFG_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR
defines the first sector to use
The second way is to define CFG_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART and implement the
jffs2_part_info(int part_num) function in your board specific files.
In this mode CFG_JFFS2_FIRST_BANK and CFG_JFFS2_FIRST_SECTOR is not
used.
The input is a partition number starting with 0.
Return a pointer to struct part_info or NULL for error;
Ex jffs2_part_info() for one partition.
---
#if defined CFG_JFFS_CUSTOM_PART
#include <jffs2/jffs2.h>
static struct part_info part;
struct part_info*
jffs2_part_info(int part_num)
{
if(part_num==0){
if(part.usr_priv==(void*)1)
return &part;
memset(&part, 0, sizeof(part));
part.offset=(char*)0xFF800000;
part.size=1024*1024*8;
/* Mark the struct as ready */
part.usr_priv=(void*)1;
return &part;
}
return 0;
}
#endif
---
TODO.
Add a new command so it's actually possible to change
partition.
Remove the assumption that JFFS can dereference a pointer
into the disk. The current code do not work with memory holes
or hardware with a sliding window (PCMCIA).
