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.
