Hi @tredlich00 thanks for opening an issue. littlefs predates GitHub's discussions feature and I've been procrastinating on figuring out how that works, so that's on me (enabling discussions is irreversible).
As I built my code to do this I came to realize that there is a block_count variable in lfs_t and a block_count variable in struct lfs_config.
Ah, this is a bit of a limitation of C's "header-is-documentation". The documented struct lfs_config
struct should be filled out when calling lfs_mount
, but the undocumented lfs_t
struct is an implementation detail that does not need to (shouldn't?) be filled out.
But lfs_t
needs to be fully defined in the header file so C knows its size/alignment.
The technical reason block_count occurs twice:
You don't need to know the block count before mounting the disk. If struct lfs_config
's block_count is 0, the actual block_count is read from metadata stored on disk.
We can't store this in struct lfs_config
's block_count, because struct lfs_config
is const, and may be stored in ROM. So the only option is a duplicated field.
Because of these duplicated fields, a ROM backed struct lfs_config
is less appealing than it initially was, so in the future we may move to not requiring struct lfs_config
to live as long as lfs_t
. Though this may require a major version change.
As I dug deeper I found some solutions that suggested I needed to erase my NOR flash device myself and that would correct the issue.
I'm curious, what led you down this path? littlefs's lfs_format
function should be stateless, unless the block device layers below littlefs has some weird external requirement.
Then, suddenly after the sixth or seventh test I could no longer mount the media.
This is all suggesting that the erase
callback is not implemented correctly. Out of the factory, your device may be pre-erased, which would allow a small number of commits to be written. But then littlefs will need to erase a block for new commits, which could lead to this error. This would also explain why reformatting didn't work.
