Thanks for your response. I want to tell few more things about our 
implementation.

Actually we are planning to simulate (but not implement) the file system and 
implement the SCSI transparent command set decoder. When ever a file is sent to 
the USB mass storage device, we will be taking the content of that file to use 
for our application. The actual application does not require all the features 
of a Mass Storage Device; we just want it to look like a Mass Storage Device 
for transferring the data in the form of a file and for some other usage.

Because of some constraints, we have to implement all this stuff at u-boot 
level, instead of doing it in OS(Linux) level.

Regards,
Yogesh

You don't need to and should not change anything in U-Boot. All it
takes to do what you want is a two stage boot procedure. In the first
step, boot Linux.


Keep in mind that U-Boot is a boot loader, not an operating system.
Fancy stuff should be done where the enviornment is available for it,
i. e. in an operating system.


[Note: even if you implement Device Mode support as an USB Mass
Storage Device in U-Boot that would be just the first step - you
would then most probably need write support for the file system(s)
of your choice, and ... and ...]

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

Every program has at least one bug and can be shortened by  at  least
one instruction - from which, by induction, one can deduce that every
program can be reduced to one instruction which doesn't work.
