embedded_vfs example
This example demonstrates how to embed the virtual file system (VFS) provided in KasperskyOS Community Edition into an entity being developed.
In this example, the Client entity fully encapsulates the VFS implementation from KasperskyOS Community Edition. This lets you eliminate the use of IPC for all the standard I/O functions (stdio.h, socket.h, etc.) for debugging or performance improvement purposes, for example.
The Client entity tests the following operations:
- Create a folder.
- Create and delete a file.
- Read from a file and write to a file.
Supplied resources
The example includes the hdd.img image of a hard drive with the FAT32 file system.
This example does not contain an implementation of drivers of block devices used by the Client. These drivers (the ATA and SDCard entities) are provided in KasperskyOS Community Edition and are added in the build file ./CMakeLists.txt.

Building and running example
To run an example on QEMU, go to the directory containing the example, build the example and run the following commands:
$ cd build/einit
# Before running the following command, be sure that the path to
# the directory with the qemu-system-arm executable file is saved in
# the PATH environment variable. If it is not there,
# add it to the PATH variable.
$ qemu-system-arm -m 2048 -machine vexpress-a15 -nographic -monitor none -sd hdd.img -kernel kos-qemu-image
