To use the IDE/CF driver, five files, in addition to the generic file system files, must be included in the build:
fs_dev_ide.c(located in the directory specified in Section 9.01).fs_dev_ide.h(located in the directory specified in Section 9.01).fs_dev_ide_bsp.c(located in the user application or BSP).
...
\Micrium\Software\uC-FS\Drivers\IDE
A single IDE/CF volume is opened as shown in
...
. The file system initialization (FS_Init()) function must have been previously called.
ROM/RAM characteristics and performance benchmarks of the IDE driver can be found in section 11-1-1 “Driver Characterization”.
Listing 18-1 Opening a IDE/CF device volume
L18-1(1) Register the IDE/CF device driver.
L18-1(2) FSDev_Open() opens/initializes a file system device. The parameters are the device name (1a) and a pointer to a device driver-specific configuration structure (1b). The device name (1a) is composed of a device driver name (“ide”), a single colon, an ASCII-formatted integer (the unit number) and another colon. Since the IDE/CF driver requires no configuration, the configuration structure (1b) should be passed a NULL pointer.
Since IDE/CF are often removable media, it is possible for the device to not be present when FSDev_Open() is called. The device will still be added to the file system and a volume opened on the (not yet present) device. When the volume is later accessed, the file system will attempt to refresh the device information and detect a file system (see section 7-2 “Using Devices” for more information).
L18-1(3) FSVol_Open() opens/mounts a volume. The parameters are the volume name (2a), the device name (2b) and the partition that will be opened (2c). There is no restriction on the volume name (2a); however, it is typical to give the volume the same name as the underlying device. If the default partition is to be opened, or if the device is not partition, then the partition number (2c) should be zero.
L18-1(4) High level format can be applied to the volume if FS_ERR_PARTITION_NOT_FOUND is returned by the call to FSVol_Open() function.

If the IDE initialization succeeds, the file system will produce the trace output as shown in Figure 18-1 in (if a sufficiently high trace level is configured). See section E-9 “Trace Configuration” Trace Configuration about configuring the trace level.
