EROFS is still working in progress, thus it is not suitable |
||||
for all productive uses. play at your own risk :) |
||||
|
||||
TODO List: |
||||
- add the missing error handling code |
||||
(mainly existed in xattr and decompression submodules); |
||||
|
||||
- finalize erofs ondisk format design (which means that |
||||
minor on-disk revisions could happen later); |
||||
|
||||
- documentation and detailed technical analysis; |
||||
|
||||
- general code review and clean up |
||||
(including confusing variable names and code snippets); |
||||
|
||||
- support larger compressed clustersizes for selection |
||||
(currently erofs only works as expected with the page-sized |
||||
compressed cluster configuration, usually 4KB); |
||||
|
||||
- support more lossless data compression algorithms |
||||
in addition to LZ4 algorithms in VLE approach; |
||||
|
||||
- data deduplication and other useful features. |
||||
|
||||
erofs-mkfs (preview version) binaries for i386 / x86_64 are available at: |
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/hsiangkao/erofs_mkfs_binary |
||||
|
||||
It is still in progress opening mkfs source code to public, |
||||
in any case an open-source mkfs will be released in the near future. |
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Code, suggestions, etc, are welcome. Please feel free to |
||||
ask and send patches, |
