NOMMU: Fix the RomFS Kconfig to ensure at least one backing store is selected Fix the configuration of the RomFS to make sure that at least one backing store method is always selected. This is done by rendering it down to a choice item that selects between Block, MTD and both. This also works correctly in the case that CONFIG_MTD=m: MTD cannot be selected as a backing store unless CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is also 'm'.

---help---
This is a very small read-only file system mainly intended for
initial ram disks of installation disks, but it could be used for
other read-only media as well. Read
<file:Documentation/filesystems/romfs.txt> for details.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called romfs. Note that the file system of your
root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be a
module.
If you don't know whether you need it, then you don't need it:
answer N.
NOMMU: Make it possible for RomFS to use MTD devices directly Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession of the block layer - as well as using block devices. This permits RomFS: (1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP); (2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled. RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block devices or for both. If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores. I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device. I see my test program being run XIP: # cat /proc/maps ... c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144 /mnt/doshm ... GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the set-aside RAM space.

This permits ROMFS to use block devices buffered through the page
cache as the medium from which to retrieve data. It does not allow
direct mapping of the medium.
If unsure, answer Y.

This permits ROMFS to use MTD based devices directly, without the
intercession of the block layer (which may have been disabled). It
also allows direct mapping of MTD devices through romfs files under
NOMMU conditions if the underlying device is directly addressable by
the CPU.
If unsure, answer Y.
