Squashfs is a highly compressed read-only + filesystem for Linux. It uses zlib compression to compress both + files, inodes and directories. Inodes in the system are very small + and all blocks are packed to minimise data overhead. Block sizes + greater than 4K are supported up to a maximum of 1 Mbytes (default + block size 128K). SquashFS 4.0 supports 64 bit filesystems and files + (larger than 4GB), full uid/gid information, hard links and + timestamps. + + Squashfs is intended for general read-only filesystem use, for + archival use (i.e. in cases where a .tar.gz file may be used), and in + embedded systems where low overhead is needed. Further information + and tools are available from http://squashfs.sourceforge.net. + + If you want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be + inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), + say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module + will be called squashfs. Note that the root file system (the one + containing the directory /) cannot be compiled as a module. + + If unsure, say N. + +config SQUASHFS_EMBEDDED + + bool "Additional option for memory-constrained systems" + depends on SQUASHFS + default n + help + Saying Y here allows you to specify cache size. + + If unsure, say N. + +config SQUASHFS_FRAGMENT_CACHE_SIZE + int "Number of fragments cached" if SQUASHFS_EMBEDDED + depends on SQUASHFS + default "3" + help + By default SquashFS caches the last 3 fragments read from + the filesystem.
