Is the one that support pen drive available?

First of all, thank you! Porting this on another stm32 board was a piece of cake.

Which EFSL version is this based on? Latest is 0.3.6, but looking at ui.c:rmfile() suggests the attached efsl is newer?

Just FYI, at 15 MHz SPI clock I get the following on an old 16 MB card:

- 31 kB/s write speed

- 410 kB/s read speed

Just a benchmark update:

Changing 16 MB card with a 256 MB increased performance (esp. write!) to:

- 250 kB/s write

- 412 kB/s read

And then changing if_spiSend to directly use registers instead of calls, and addition of if_spiSendBlock for 512 B blocks further increased that to:

- 358 kB/s write

- 875 kB/s read

:D

SPI_Config() of efsl/source/interface/stm32f10x_spi.c

And a bug that was not easy to track down, since I assumed the code is correct ;)

696 SPI_InitStructure.SPI_CPOL = SPI_CPOL_High;

697 SPI_InitStructure.SPI_CPHA = SPI_CPHA_2Edge;

should be changed to (spi mode 0):

696 SPI_InitStructure.SPI_CPOL = SPI_CPOL_Low;

697 SPI_InitStructure.SPI_CPHA = SPI_CPHA_1Edge;

to conform to SD card specs.

@domen,

Thank you - such benchmarks are always valuable - always appreciated.

Bug detection/fix are hugely valuable - thanks for your clear presentation.

Client reported that they used EFSL - and had success ''without'' catching n

Is EFSL power loss resilient? i.e. can power be removed (or processor reset) while something is in the process of being written and not corrupt the file system (obviously what is being written at the time of reset will be lost)?

Regards
