PAL Platform Public Functions
[PAL_PLAT_GROUP_FS]

This function copies all files from a source folder to a destination folder (FLAT copy only).

Parameters:

[in]	pathNameSrc	A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the source folder.
[in]	pathNameDest	A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the destination folder (MUST exist).

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

Both folders must not be open. If a folder does not exist the function fails.

The process copies one file at a time until all files are copied.

The function does not copy a directory found in the path.

Definition at line 457 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function closes an open file object.

Parameters:

[in]

fd

A pointer to the open file object structure to be closed.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code palError_t.a

Note:

After successful execution of the function, the file object is no longer valid and it can be discarded.

In some platforms, this function needs to free the file descriptor memory.

Definition at line 160 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function opens the file whose name is specified in the parameter `pathName` and associates it with a stream that can be identified in future operations by the `fd` pointer returned.

Parameters:

[out]	fd	A file descriptor for the file entered in the `pathName`.
[in]	*pathName	A pointer to the null-terminated string that specifies the file name to open or create.
[in]	mode	A mode flag that specifies the type of access and open method for the file.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

The folder path must end with "/".

If necessary, the platform layer allocates memory for the file descriptor. The structure pal_plat_fclose() shall free that buffer.

The mode flags sent to this function are normalized to the pal_fsFileMode_t and each platform needs to replace them with the proper values.

Definition at line 131 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function reads an array of bytes from the stream and stores them in the block of memory specified by the buffer. The position indicator of the stream is advanced by the total amount of bytes read.

Parameters:

[in]	fd	A pointer to the open file object structure.
[in]	buffer	A buffer for storing the read data.
[in]	numOfBytes	The number of bytes to read.
[out]	numberOfBytesRead	The number of bytes read.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

After successful execution of the function, `numberOfBytesRead` should be checked to detect end of the file. If `numberOfBytesRead` is less than `numOfBytes`, the read/write pointer has reached the end of the file during the read operation or an error has occurred.

Definition at line 185 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function moves the file read/write pointer without any read/write operation to the file.

Parameters:

[in]	fd	A pointer to the open file object structure.
[in]	offset	The byte offset from top of the file to set the read/write pointer.
[out]	whence	The offset is relative to this.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

- The `whence` options are:

1. PAL_ERR_FS_SEEKSET - relative to the start of the file.
2. PAL_ERR_FS_SEEKCUR - relative to the current position indicator.
3. PAL_ERR_FS_SEEKEND - relative to the end-of-file.

In some systems, there is no whence argument. If you need to implement the `whence` argument:
PAL_ERR_FS_SEEKEND - The function first finds the length of the file, then subtracts the file length from the position to find the relative path from the beginning.
PAL_ERR_FS_SEEKCUR - The function finds the current stream position and calculates the relative path from the file start.

In both options, fseek() needs to verify that the offset is smaller than the file end or start.

Definition at line 289 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function gets the current read/write pointer of a file.

Parameters:

[in]

fd

A pointer to the open file object structure.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Definition at line 354 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function starts to write data from the buffer to the file at the position pointed by the read/write pointer.

Parameters:

[in]	fd	A pointer to the open file object structure.
[in]	buffer	A pointer to the data to be written.
[in]	numOfBytes	The number of bytes to write.
[out]	numberOfBytesWritten	The number of bytes written.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code palError_t.

Note:

The read/write pointer advances as number of bytes written. After successful execution of the function,

`numberOfBytesWritten` should be checked to detect if the disk is full. If `numberOfBytesWritten` is less than `numOfBytes`, the volume got full during the write operation.

Definition at line 235 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function gets the default value for root directory (primary)

Parameters:

[in]

dataID

- id of the data to ge the root folder for.

Returns:

pointer to the default path.

Definition at line 581 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function attempts to create a directory named pathName.

Parameters:

[in]

*pathName

A pointer to the null-terminated string that specifies the directory name to create.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

To remove a directory use PAL_ERR_FS_rmdir.

Example

 {.cpp}
    palStatus_t ret;
    ret = PAL_ERR_FS_mkdir("Dir1");
    if(!ret)
    {
        //Error
    }

This function deletes a directory.

Parameters:

[in]

*pathName

A pointer to the null-terminated string that specifies the name of the directory to be deleted.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

The directory to be deleted must be Empty and closed. The folder path must end with "/". If given "..", the function changes the root directory to one directory down and deletes the working directory.

Definition at line 105 of file FreeRTOS/Storage/FileSystem/pal_plat_fileSystem.c.

This function deletes all files in a folder from the file system (FLAT remove only).

Parameters:

[in]

pathName

A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the folder.

Returns:

PAL_SUCCESS upon a successful operation.
PAL_FILE_SYSTEM_ERROR - see the error code description palError_t.

Note:

The folder must not be open and the folder path must end with "/".

The process deletes one file at a time by calling pal_plat_fsUnlink until all files are removed.

The function does not remove the directory found in the path.
