fs: make it behave a bit more like the package infra

2018-01-03T20:58:07+00:00

Currently, to register a filesystem, one has to call: $(eval $(call ROOTFS_TARGET,blabla)) This is very unlike the package infrastructure, where the name of the package is automatically guessed by the infra. It turns out that we can now do that for the filesystem infra too. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

fs/ext2: use a post-gen hook rather than a post-target rule

2017-11-30T10:51:08+00:00

post-target rules are probably not resilient to parallel builds, given that they do not depend on the image being generated first. Beside, we already have a mechanism for running stuff after the filesystem is generated, and that's called post-gen hooks. Use those hooks. Note: this basically reverts 75b6303 (rootfs-ext2: make the symlink as a _POST_TARGET) since we've now re-introduced post-gen hooks. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

fs/ext2: hint about setting the filesystem size on error

2017-07-25T22:53:05+00:00

Since we now request that the user sets the exact size of the ext2/3/4 filesystem, we've had quite a few users wondering what was going on when they enable too much and the default 60M are no longer enough. When mkfs.ext2 fails, print a hint that the user should check the size setting. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

fs/ext2: Add BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_MKFS_OPTIONS option

2017-07-09T13:35:42+00:00

This option lets the user specify mke2fs options and/or ext2/3/4 features. Signed-off-by: Sébastien Szymanski Signed-off-by: Samuel Martin Cc: "Yann E.

fs/ext2: rename BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_BLOCKS to BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_SIZE

2017-07-09T13:35:30+00:00

This change deprecates the ext2/3/4 rootfs size in blocks symbol in favor of one that mimic the fs-size argument behavior of mkfs (i.e. size in a human readable format accepting k, m, g or t suffix or their upper-case variants). This change also updates the defconfigs that used to set BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_BLOCKS symbol.

Globally replace $(HOST_DIR)/usr/sbin with $(HOST_DIR)/sbin

2017-07-05T13:19:44+00:00

Since things are no longer installed in $(HOST_DIR)/usr, the callers should also not refer to it. This is a mechanical change with git grep -l '$(HOST_DIR)/usr/sbin' | xargs sed -i 's%$(HOST_DIR)/usr/sbin%$(HOST_DIR)/sbin%g' Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

fs/ext2: use mkfs to generate rootfs image

2017-07-04T22:39:38+00:00

mkfs is now capable of generating rootfs images. Use mkfs instead of genext2fs. If not set, we now let mkfs calculate the block size and the number of inodes needed. This change also adjusts the options to meet those of mkfs. Notes: * Passing a null inode number to mkfs triggers its automatic calculation. * Passing a fs-size with no unit suffix to mkfs is interpreted as using 1K block size.

fs/ext2: deprecate BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_EXTRA_INODES option

2017-07-04T22:35:00+00:00

Soon, the ext{2,3,4} rootfs image will no longer be generated with genext2fs, but using mke2fs instead which has no support for the extra inode number option. So, deprecate the BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_EXTRA_INODES option and recommend, in lieu, to set the total inode number, taking account of the extra ones if needed.
