<li>ANSI C<br>
The FatFs module is a middleware written in ANSI C (C89). There is no platform dependence, so long as the compiler is in compliance with ANSI C.</li>

-The FatFs module assumes that size of char/short/long are 8/16/32 bit and int is 16 or 32 bit. These correspondence are defined in <tt>integer.h</tt>. This will not be a problem on most compilers. When any conflict with existing definitions is occured, you must resolve it with care.</li>

-<h4>Which function is required?</h4>
-<p>You need to provide only low level disk I/O functions that required by FatFs module and nothing else. If a working disk module for the target is already existing, you need to write only glue functions to attach it to the FatFs module. If not, you need to port any other disk module or write it from scratch. Most of defined functions are not that always required. For example, disk write function is not required in read-only configuration. Following table shows which function is required depends on configuration options.</p>

+<h3>exFAT File System</h3>
+<p>The exFAT (Microsoft's Extended File Allocation Table) file system is a replacement of the FAT file system which has been widely used in the embedded systems and consumer devices. It is adopted by SDA (SD Association) as a recommended file system for high capacity SD cards (&gt;32GB) and they are being shipped with this format, so that the exFAT will soon become one of the standard file systems for removable media.</p>
+<p>The exFAT file system allows the file size larger than 4 GiB limit what FAT file system allows upto and some file system overhead, especially file allocation delay, are reduced as well. This feature improves the write throughput to the file. However a problem on the current implementation of FatFs is that write throughput at writing to the growing edge of the fragmented file gets less than the throughput on the FAT volume. Pre-allocating a contiguous block with <tt>f_expand</tt> function may be a workaround of this problem.</p>
+<p>Note that the exFAT is a patent of Microsoft Corporation. The exFAT function of FatFs is an implementation based on US. Pat. App. Pub. No. 2009/0164440 A1. FatFs module can swich the exFAT on/off by configuration option. When enable the exFAT on the commercial products, you will need to be licensed by Microsoft depends on the final destination of the products.</p></div>

-<p>The file I/O buffer is a sector buffer to read/write a partial data on the sector. The sector buffer is either file private sector buffer on each file object or shared sector buffer in the file system object. The buffer configuration option <tt>_FS_TINY</tt> determins which sector buffer is used for the file data transfer. When tiny buffer configuration (1) is selected, data memory consumption is reduced <tt>_MAX_SS</tt> bytes each file object. In this case, FatFs module uses only a sector buffer in the file system object for file data transfer and FAT/directory access. The disadvantage of the tiny buffer configuration is: the FAT data cached in the sector buffer will be lost by file data transfer and it must be reloaded at every cluster boundary. However it will be suitable for most application from view point of the decent performance and low memory comsumption.</p>
-<p>Figure 1 shows that a partial sector, sector misaligned part of the file, is transferred via the file I/O buffer. At long data transfer shown in Figure 2, middle of transfer data that covers one or more sector is transferred to the application buffer directly. Figure 3 shows that the case of entier transfer data is aligned to the sector boundary. In this case, file I/O buffer is not used. On the direct transfer, the maximum extent of sectors are read with <tt>disk_read()</tt> function at a time but the multiple sector transfer is divided at cluster boundary even if it is contiguous.</p>

<p>Therefore taking effort to sector aligned read/write accesss eliminates buffered data transfer and the read/write performance will be improved.

-<p>The write throughput of the flash memory media becomes the worst at single sector write transaction. The write throughput increases as the number of sectors per a write transaction. This effect more appers at faster interface speed and the performance ratio often becomes grater than ten. <a href="../img/rwtest2.png">This graph</a> is clearly explaining how fast is multiple block write (W:16K, 32 sectors) than single block write (W:100, 1 sector), and also larger card tends to be slow at single block write. The number of write transactions also affects the life time of the flash memory media. Therefore the application program should write the data in large block as possible. The ideal write chunk size and alighment is size of sector, and size of cluster is the best. Of course all layers between the application and the storage device must have consideration on multiple sector write, however most of open-source disk drivers lack it. Do not split a multiple sector write request into single sector write transactions or the write throughput gets poor. Note that FatFs module and its sample disk drivers supprt multiple sector read/write feature. </p>

Number of write transactions also affects life time of the flash memory media. When compared at same amount of write data, the single sector write in Figure 6 above wears flash memory media 16 times more than multiple sector write in Figure 6 below. Single sector write is pretty pain for the flash memory media.</p>
+<p>Therefore the application program should write the data in large block as possible. The ideal write chunk size and alighment is size of sector, and size of cluster is the best. Of course all layers between the application and the storage device must have consideration on multiple sector write, however most of open-source memory card drivers lack it. Do not split a multiple sector write request into single sector write transactions or the write throughput gets poor. Note that FatFs module and its sample disk drivers supprt multiple sector read/write operation. </p>
<h4>Forcing Memory Erase</h4>
-<p>When remove a file with <tt>f_remove()</tt> function, the data clusters occupied by the file are marked 'free' on the FAT. But the data sectors containing the file data are not that applied any process, so that the file data left occupies a part of the flash memory array as 'live block'. If the file data is forced erased on removing the file, those data blocks will be turned in to the free block pool. This may skip internal block erase operation to the data block on next write operation. As the result the write performance might be improved. FatFs can manage this feature by setting <tt>_USE_TRIM</tt> to 1. Note that this is an expectation of internal process of the flash memory storage and not that always effective. Also <tt>f_remove()</tt> function will take a time when remove a large file. Most applications will not need this feature.</p>

+<p>Normal (0) or Tiny (1). At the tiny configuration, size of the file object <tt>FIL</tt> is reduced <tt>_MAX_SS</tt> bytes. Instead of private data buffer eliminated from the file object, common sector buffer in the file system object <tt>FATFS</tt> is used for the file data transfer.</p>
+
+<h4 id="fs_exfat">_FS_EXFAT</h4>
+<p>This option switches support for the exFAT file system in addition to the FAT file system, Enabled(1) or Disabled(1). To enable this feature, also LFN must be enabled and configureing <tt>_LFN_UNICODE = 1</tt> and <tt>_MAX_LFN = 255</tt> is recommended for full-featured exFAT function. Note that enabling exFAT discards C89 compatibility because of need for 64-bit integer type.</p>
+
+<h4 id="fs_nortc">_FS_NORTC</h4>
+<p>Use RTC (0) or Do not use RTC (1). This option controls timestamp function. If the system does not have an RTC function or valid timestamp is not needed, set <tt>_FS_NORTC</tt> to 1 to disable the timestamp function. Any object modified by FatFs will have a fixed timestamp defined by <tt>_NORTC_MON</tt>, <tt>_NORTC_MDAY</tt> and <tt>_NORTC_YEAR</tt>. To use the timestamp function, set <tt>_FS_NORTC = 0</tt> and add <tt>get_fattime</tt> function to the project to get the current time form real-time clock. This option has no effect at read-only configuration.</p>
+
+<h4 id="nortc_time">_NORTC_MON, _NORTC_MDAY, _NORTC_YEAR</h4>
+<p>This set of options defines the time to be used at no RTC systems. This option has no effect at read-only configuration or <tt>_FS_NORTC = 0</tt>.</p>
+
+<h4 id="fs_lock">_FS_LOCK</h4>
+<p>This option switches file lock function to control duplicated file open and illegal operations to open objects. Note that the file lock function is independent of re-entrancy. This option must be 0 at read-only configuration.</p>
+<table class="lst1">
+<tr><th>Value</th><th>Description</th></tr>
+<tr><td>0</td><td>Disable file lock function. To avoid collapsing file by wrong file operation, application program needs to avoid illegal open, remove and rename to the open objects.</td></tr>
+<tr><td>&gt;0</td><td>Enable file lock function. The value defines how many files/sub-directories can be opened simultaneously under the file lock control. Illigal operations to the open object will be rejected with <tt>FR_LOCKED</tt>.</td></tr>
+</table>
+
+<h4 id="fs_reentrant">_FS_REENTRANT</h4>
+<p>Disable (0) or Enable (1). This option switches the re-entrancy (thread safe) of the FatFs module itself. Note that file/directory access to the different volume is always re-entrant and it can work simultaneously regardless of this option but volume control functions. <tt>f_mount</tt>, <tt>f_mkfs</tt> and <tt>f_fdisk</tt>, are always not re-entrant. Only file/directory access to the same volume, in other words, exclusive use of each file system object, is under control of this function. To enable this feature, also user provided synchronization handlers, <tt>ff_req_grant</tt>, <tt>ff_rel_grant</tt>, <tt>ff_del_syncobj</tt> and <tt>ff_cre_syncobj</tt>, need to be added to the project. Sample code is available in <tt>option/syscall.c</tt>.</p>
+
+<h4 id="fs_timeout">_FS_TIMEOUT</h4>
+<p>Number of time ticks to abort the file function with <tt>FR_TIMEOUT</tt> when wait time is too long. This option has no effect when <tt>_FS_REENTRANT = 0</tt>.</p>
+
+<h4 id="sync_t">_SYNC_t</h4>
+<p>This option defines O/S dependent sync object type. e.g. <tt>HANDLE</tt>, <tt>ID</tt>, <tt>OS_EVENT*</tt>, <tt>SemaphoreHandle_t</tt> and etc. A header file for O/S definitions needs to be included somewhere in the scope of <tt>ff.c</tt>.

Unlike expansion of file by <tt>f_lseek</tt> function, the file must be truncated prior to use this function and read/write pointer of the file stays at top of the file after the function. The file content allocated with this function is <em>undefined</em> because no data is written to the file in this process. The function can fail with <tt>FR_DENIED</tt> due to some reasons below.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>No free contiguous space was found.</li>
+<li>Size of the file was not zero.</li>
+<li>The file has been opened in read-only mode.</li>
+<li>Not allowable file size. (&gt;= 4GiB on FAT volume)</li>
+</ul>
+<p>When <tt class="arg">opt</tt> is 0, the function finds a contiguous data area and set it as suggested point for next allocation instead of allocating it to the file. The next cluster allocation is started at top of the contiguous area found by this function. Thus the write file is guaranteed be contiguous and no allocation delay until the size reaches that size at least unless any other changes to the volume is performed.</p>
+<p>The contiguous file would have an advantage at time-critical read/write operations. It reduces some overheads in the file system and the storage media caused by random access due to fragmented file data. Especially, at the exFAT volume, any FAT access for the contiguous file is completely eliminated and storage media will be accessed sequentially.</p>
+<p>Also the contiguous file data can be easily accessed directly via low-level disk functions but it is not recommended in consideration for future compatibility.</p>

+<h3>Legal Characters and Case Sensitivity</h3>
+<p>On the FAT file system, legal characters for file name are, <tt>0-9 A-Z ! # $ % &amp; ' ( ) - @ ^ _ ` { } ~</tt> and extended characters (<tt>\x80</tt>-<tt>\xFF</tt>). Under LFN supported system, also white space and <tt>+ , ; = [ ]</tt> are legal for the file name and the white spaces and periods can be placed anywhere in the name except for end of the name string.</p>
+<p>FAT file system is case-insensitive to the object names on the volume. All object names are compared in case-insensitive. For example, these three names, <tt>file.txt</tt>, <tt>File.Txt</tt> and <tt>FILE.TXT</tt>, are identical. This is applied to also extended charactres. When an object is created on the FAT volume, upper converted name is recorded to the SFN entry, and the raw name is recorded to the LFN entry.</p>
+<p>As for the DBCS language MS-DOS, it was case-sensitive to the extended characters. To follow this specification, FatFs works with case-sensitive to the extended characters at only non-LFN with DBCS configuration (DOS/DBCS specs). But at LFN configuration, FatFs works with case-insensitive to all characters (WindowsNT specs). This can cause a problem on compatibility with Windows system when an object with extended characters is created on the volume at non-LFN and DBCS configuration; therfore the object names with DBCS extended characters should not be used on the FAT volume shared by those systems.</p>

<h3>Unicode API</h3>

<h4>Description</h4>
-<p>The <tt>f_mkfs()</tt> function creates an FAT volume on the specified logical drive. When FDISK format is specified, a primary partition occupies entire space of the physical drive is created and then an FAT volume is created on the partition. When SFD format is specified, the FAT volume starts from the first sector of the physical drive.</p>
-<p>If the logical drive is bound to the specific partition (1-4) by multiple partition feature (<tt>_MULTI_PARTITION</tt>), the FAT volume is created into the partition. In this case, the second argument <tt class="arg">sfd</tt> is ignored. The physical drive must have been partitioned with <tt>f_fdisk()</tt> function or any other partitioning tools prior to create the FAT volume with this function.</p>
-<p>Note that there are two partitioning rules, FDISK and SFD. The FDISK partitioning is usually used for harddisk, MMC, SDC, CFC and U Disk. It can divide a physical drive into one or more partitions with a partition table on the MBR. However Windows does not support multiple partition on the removable disk. The SFD is non-partitioned method. The FAT volume starts from the first sector on the physical drive without partition table. It is usually used for floppy disk, Microdrive, optical disk and any type of super-floppy media.</p>
-<p>The FAT sub-type, FAT12/FAT16/FAT32, is determined by number of clusters on the volume and nothing else, according to the FAT specification issued by Microsoft. Thus which FAT sub-type is selected, is depends on the volume size and the specified cluster size. The cluster size affects read/write throughput and space usage efficiency. Larger cluster size increases the read/write throughput and decreases the space usage efficiency of the volume.</p>
-<p>In case of the number of clusters gets near the FAT sub-type boundaries, the function can fail with <tt>FR_MKFS_ABORTED</tt>.</p>
+<p>The FAT sub-type, FAT12/FAT16/FAT32, of FAT volume except exFAT is determined by only number of clusters on the volume and nothing else, according to the FAT specification issued by Microsoft. Thus which FAT sub-type is selected, is depends on the volume size and the specified cluster size. In case of the combination of FAT type and cluter size specified by argument cannot be valid on the volume, the function will fail with <tt>FR_MKFS_ABORTED</tt>.</p>
+<p>The allocation unit, also called 'cluster', is a unit of disk space allocation for files. When the size of allocation unit is 32768 bytes, a file with 100 bytes in size occupies 32768 bytes of disk space. The space efficiency of disk usage gets worse as increasing size of allocation unit, but, on the other hand, the read/write performance increases as the size of allocation unit. Therefore the allocation unit is a trade-off between space efficiency and performance. For the large storages in GB order, 32768 bytes or larger cluster (this is automatically selected by default) is recommended for most case unless extremely many files are created on a volume.</p>
+<p>There are two disk formats, FDISK and SFD. The FDISK format is usually used for harddisk, MMC, SDC, CFC and U Disk. It can divide a physical drive into one or more partitions with a partition table on the MBR (maser boot record, the first sector of the physical drive). The SFD (super-floppy disk) is non-partitioned disk format. The FAT volume starts at the first sector of the physical drive without any disk partitioning. It is usually used for floppy disk, Microdrive, optical disk and most type of super-floppy media. Some systems support only either one of two formats and other is not supported.</p>
+<p>When <tt>FM_SFD</tt> is not specified, a primary partition occupies whole drive space is created and then the FAT volume is created in it. When <tt>FM_SFD</tt> is specified, the FAT volume occupies from the first sector of the drive is created.</p>
+<p>If the logical drive to be formatted is bound to the specific partition (1-4) by support of multiple partition, <tt><a href="config.html#multi_partition">_MULTI_PARTITION</a></tt>, the FAT volume is created into the partition and <tt>FM_SFD</tt> flag is ignored.
