Typically * RDFLAG_WRENABLED | RDFLAG_FUNLINK * * Returned Value: * Zero on success; a negated errno value on failure. * ****************************************************************************/ int mkrd(int minor, uint32_t nsectors, uint16_t sectsize, uint8_t rdflags) { FAR uint8_t *buffer; int ret; /* Allocate the memory backing up the ramdisk from the kernel heap */ buffer = (FAR uint8_t *)kmm_malloc(sectsize * nsectors); if (buffer == NULL) { ferr("ERROR: kmm_malloc() failed, enable DEBUG_MM for more info!\n"); return -ENOMEM; } #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO memset(buffer, 0, sectsize * nsectors); #endif finfo("RAMDISK at %p\n", buffer); /* Then register the ramdisk */ ret = ramdisk_register(minor, buffer, nsectors, sectsize, rdflags); if (ret < 0) { ferr("ERROR: ramdisk_register() failed: %d\n", ret); kmm_free(buffer); } return ret; } #endif /* CONFIG_DRVR_MKRD */
