Anyways, we do have things that will slow things down. Firstly, error checking.
Error checking should be done after every sector (I think), to see if the sector was read/written ok. This will involve checking the "Status Register" or "Alternate Status Register". I'm not really sure how important this error checking is since it does not ensure that your data is correct. It may be useful for USB MSD. I don't think it would slow things down too much. Next of course will be fragmentation in Fat32. I must review fragmentation & file read procedures in fat32. I'll try to remove all usage of the old procedure from FAT32. pata_hd_read_data_byte() may also not be needed in FAT32 since I should be using read_sector all the time. This will save program/data space. Matt. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
