I am missing some detail here. Can you provide details?


Each thread can have its own file system environment. So we need some sort of thread-local storage. Since applications using a file system will very likely also enable the Newlib re-entrancy we can re-use the __getreent() function for the file system environment. In newlib_create_hook() we create a structure

struct S {
  struct _reent reent;
  rtems_user_env_t *env;
}

and assign it to thread->libc_reent;

The file system can then use

(struct S *) __getreent()

to get its file system environment.
