1.23 MPFS Filesystem using NVM Media
This application shows an example of implementing a MPFS disk in device Internal Flash memory.
Description
File System Operations on NVM:
- The application contains a MPFS disk image in the internal Flash memory. The
disk image contains two files named:
- FILE.txt, Size = 11 Bytes. The content of the file is: “Hello World”
- TEST.txt, Size = 10 Bytes. The content of the file is: “1234567890”
- The application performs following file system related operations:
- SYS_FS_FileRead
- SYS_FS_FileStat
- SYS_FS_FileSize
- SYS_FS_FileSeek
- SYS_FS_FileEOF
- The contents of both the files are read and compared with the expected strings as mentioned above. If the string compare is successful, An LED indication is provided.
