Is it possible to use the BB as Mass Storage Device?
I want it to be connected to an audio player that can read files from USB connectivity (such as USB flash drive) and act as data storage device containing one specific folder (and its sub-folders) from the file system (if possible, on a flash drive connected to the board.).
As the device specs says, it has connectivity of:
- USB client for power & communications
- USB host
Operating system will probably be Ubuntu but can be changed.
What drivers or configurations needs to be done in order to achieve this?
回答1:
The latest images have already the mass storage usb gadget active, so a mass storage peripheral should be recognized by your system upon connection. A quick google search reveals this discussion about a user trying to disable the USB MS gadget:
From the discussion, the files where the magic happens are:
- Debian:
/opt/scripts/boot/am335x_evm.sh - Ubuntu:
/opt/scripts/boot/am335* - Armstrong:
/usr/bin/g-ether-load.sh
In my Debian image the line you want to modify is:
modprobe g_multi file=${gadget_partition} cdrom=0 stall=0 removable=1 nofua=1 iSerialNumber=${SERIAL_NUMBER} iManufacturer=Circuitco iProduct=BeagleBone${BLACK} host_addr=${cpsw_1_mac}
and the corresponding $gadget_partition variable that is set just before that in order to customize the folder you want to expose.
Note that the g_multi gadget in its standard configuration presents 3 different devices: an ethernet interface, a mass storage peripheral and a serial interface. If you want to customize the parameters you can refer to the g_multi documentation
