Efsys.pcmcia

Generic embedded filesystem driver options

Syntax:

Efsys.pcmcia [-d device_number]
             [-i] [-v]
             [-m mountpoint] ... 

Options:

-d device_number

Create raw devices starting from /dev/sktdevice_number. For example, if you specify -d 10 or -d10, the first PCMCIA socket is called /dev/skt10 and its mountpoint is /efs10pY.

-i

Ignore CIS information

-m mountpoint

The mountpoint for the embedded filesystem (EFS) partitions

-v

Be verbose; display a message if an error occurs.

Description:

The Efsys.pcmcia driver supports hot swapping. All access to PCMCIA cards is handled by Pcmcia.generic (see the QNX Utilities reference), so Efsys.pcmcia can interoperate with other PCMCIA drivers.

Efsys.pcmcia can be started only if the Pcmcia.generic server is already running.

Efsys.pcmcia uses the following default filenames:

/dev/skt1

raw device special file for EFS socket 1

/dev/skt2

raw device special file for EFS socket 2

/dev/sktXimgY

raw device special file for each image partition on each EFS, where X is the logical socket, and Y is a unique partition number

/efsXpY

embedded filesystem mountpoint for each EFS partition on each EFS, where X is the logical socket, and Y is a unique partition number

To change the raw device names, use the -d option. To change the mountpoints of the EFS partitions, use the -m option. You can specify multiple -m options.
