Block Device Naming Rules
First level prefix: port.
Name | Index | Long name | Description |
---|---|---|---|
int | 0 | internal | eMMC |
ext | 1 | external | SD card |
gcd | 1 | game card | Game Card |
mcd | 2 | memory card | Memory Card |
uma | 3 | usb mass | USB mass storage device |
usd | 4 | micro sd | Micro SD card |
xmc | 0xFF | external memory card | Actual Memory Card when internal eMMC is mounted as Memory Card |
Second level prefix: kind
- lp - general.
- pp - no part.
Third level prefix: stat
- ina: inactive
- act: active
- ign: ignore (same behaviour as inactive)
Fourth level prefix: id
- unused
- idstor
- sloader
- os
- vsh
- vshdata
- vtrm
- user
- userext
- gamero
- gamerw
- updater
- sysdata
- mediaid
- pidata
- entire
Partition Block Devices
Each partition has a numeric alias (string) that seems to be used to reference the partition.
Numeric names most likely follow order of partitions in MBR.
To access device node use /dev
prefix (like /dev/gcd-lp-ign-gamero
).
There can be up to 16 aliases from 0 to 15 per physical device (eMMC, Game Card, Memory Card) and alias 16 is hardcoded and called entire
.
Not all numeric names are fixed but entire
numeric names are hardcoded.
