1config ROMFS_FS
2	tristate "ROM file system support"
3	depends on BLOCK
4	---help---
5	  This is a very small read-only file system mainly intended for
6	  initial ram disks of installation disks, but it could be used for
7	  other read-only media as well.  Read
8	  <file:Documentation/filesystems/romfs.txt> for details.
9
10	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
11	  module will be called romfs.  Note that the file system of your
12	  root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be a
13	  module.
14
15	  If you don't know whether you need it, then you don't need it:
16	  answer N.

18config ROMFS_ON_BLOCK
19	bool "Block device-backed ROM file system support" if (ROMFS_ON_MTD && EMBEDDED)
20	depends on ROMFS_FS && BLOCK
21	help
22	  This permits ROMFS to use block devices buffered through the page
23	  cache as the medium from which to retrieve data.  It does not allow
24	  direct mapping of the medium.
25
26	  If unsure, answer Y.
27
28config ROMFS_ON_MTD
29	bool "MTD-backed ROM file system support"
30	depends on ROMFS_FS
31	depends on MTD=y || (ROMFS_FS=m && MTD)
32	help
33	  This permits ROMFS to use MTD based devices directly, without the
34	  intercession of the block layer (which may have been disabled).  It
35	  also allows direct mapping of MTD devices through romfs files under
36	  NOMMU conditions if the underlying device is directly addressable by
37	  the CPU.
38
39	  If unsure, answer Y.
