ramdisk failure

kristies1 — Mon, 27 Apr 2015 15:40:03 GMT

Hi,

using MQX4.0.2 on K60FX512, I want to create small ramdisk, but always get error MFS_WRITE_FAULT during format, what is wrong?

extern unsigned char extBuffer[4096];

MQX_FILE_PTR a_fd_ptr;

void Ram_disk_start(void)

{

MQX_FILE_PTR dev_handle1,fp;

int_32 error_code;

_mqx_uint mqx_status;

a_fd_ptr = 0;

mqx_status = _io_mem_install("mfs_ramdisk:", (uchar_ptr)&extBuffer[0], (_file_size)4096);

dev_handle1 = fopen("mfs_ramdisk:", "b");

mqx_status = _io_mfs_install(dev_handle1, "b:", 0);

a_fd_ptr = fopen("b:", NULL);

error_code = ferror(a_fd_ptr);

if ( error_code == MFS_NOT_A_DOS_DISK ) {

printf("\nNOT A DOS DISK! You must format to continue.");

rdformat();

}

void rdformat(void)

{

int_32 error_code = IO_ERROR;

uint_32 bad_cluster_count;

MFS_IOCTL_FORMAT_PARAM format_struct;

MFS_FORMAT_DATA MFS_format =

{

/* PHYSICAL_DRIVE; */ 0x80,

/* MEDIA_DESCRIPTOR; */ 0xf8,

/* BYTES_PER_SECTOR; */ 256,

/* SECTORS_PER_TRACK; */ 0,

/* NUMBER_OF_HEADS; */ 0,

/* NUMBER_OF_SECTORS; */ 16, /* depends on disk */

/* HIDDEN_SECTORS; */ 0,

/* RESERVED_SECTORS; */ 0

};

format_struct.FORMAT_PTR = &MFS_format;

format_struct.COUNT_PTR = &bad_cluster_count;

error_code = ioctl(a_fd_ptr, IO_IOCTL_FORMAT, (uint_32_ptr) &format_struct);

if (error_code) {

printf("Error while formatting: 0x%x\n", error_code);

}

I used MQX4.1.1 on TWR-K70F120M using CW10.6.

Now your code is trying to implement MFS on 4096 bytes. This is too small (just barely).

MFS needs RAM for the FAT table. My example has the RAM disk at 6144 (0x1800) bytes and after formatting you can see there is only 1536 bytes available.

When I set my example to 4096 byte I get the following output:

Demo start

Initialized Ram Disk to a:\

NOT A DOS DISK! You must format to continue.

Please increase your RAM disk size.

David
