Enable system partition compression
* Prerequisites: external/f2fs-tools: sload compression support
* Must work with corresponding changes in system/extras repository
* If Board config does not change, it falls back to old behavior,
i.e. no compression for the system partition
* Kernel f2fs compression support is a prerequisite if the Board config
enables the compression (see below)
* Necessary board config change
(e.g. device/<vendor>/<product>/BoardConfig-common.mk)
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE := f2fs
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_RESERVED_SIZE := 200000000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_FILE_SYSTEM_COMPRESS := true
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_F2FS_SLOAD_COMPRESS_FLAGS := <sload compress sub-options>
Setting BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_FILE_SYSTEM_COMPRESS to true enables both the
compression support when the initial empty file system be made (mkfs.f2fs)
and the compression flag (-c) when the system image files be side-loaded
by sload.
Sload compress sub-options (i.e. options other than -c) will be provided
by BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_F2FS_SLOAD_COMPRESS_FLAGS. If it is not given, or
is empty, the default sub-options will be used
Please refer to the sload.f2fs manual page.
Setting BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE to f2fs is trivially necessary.
* File system table (fstab), notably the file 'fstab.hardware', should
also changed:
- The file type must be changed to f2fs
- Perhaps also other f2fs-specific options
