背景
littlefs是arm面向嵌入式设备推出的一款掉电安全的小型文件系统，具有抗掉电，动态磨损均衡，RAM/ROM需求少等特点，具体介绍可见 https://github.com/ARMmbed/littlefs
作为一款在嵌入式设备上使用的文件系统，出问题时，一般是需要将数据dump出来进行分析的。此时就需要PC端的调试工具了。
littlefs-fuse简介
这个项目提供了一个littlefs的FUSE封装，也就是你可以借助此项目，在PC上直接将littlefs镜像挂载起来，并正常进行一些文件系统的操作。
源码位于：https://github.com/ARMmbed/littlefs-fuse
结构
我们直接下载下来
$ git clone https://github.com/ARMmbed/littlefs-fuse.git
$ cd littlefs-fuse先看下结构

编译
根据README，项目依赖 FUSE version 2.6及以上的版本，可以使用如下命令查看版本
fusermount -V另外还需要安装下 libfuse-dev:
sudo apt-get install libfuse-dev依赖项满足之后，直接make即可生成lfs应用程序
make生成设备并挂载使用
首先需要造一个块设备出来
sudo chmod a+rw /dev/loop0 # make loop device user accessible
dd if=/dev/zero of=image bs=512 count=2048 # create a 1MB image
losetup /dev/loop0 image # attach the loop device我们上一步是dd生成了一个空的image，所以需要先格式化，
./lfs --format /dev/loop0再挂载
mkdir -p mount
./lfs /dev/loop0 mount挂载成功后，执行mount可以看到挂载情况
$ mount | grep lfs
/home/zhuangqiubin/debug_littlefs/littlefs-fuse/lfs on /home/zhuangqiubin/debug_littlefs/littlefs-fuse/mount type fuse.lfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000)现在就可以在mount目录下，随意进行操作了，创建删除读出写入，都会被转换成littlefs的操作，最终作用到image上
过程中，可以随时dump出数据，就可以看到你的操作，最终存储到littlefs上时什么样的数据格式了，例如
$ echo "www.cnblogs.com/zqb-all/" >> mount/test_littlefs.txt
$ hexdump -C image

使用完毕之后，用以下命令卸载
umount mount
sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0挂载一个指定镜像
以上是生成了空的镜像，格式化再挂载。如果要挂载一个现成的镜像，步骤也是差不多的，只是镜像换一下。假设现成的镜像叫littlefs.img，则
sudo chmod a+rw /dev/loop0 # make loop device user accessible
losetup /dev/loop0 littlefs.img # attach the loop device
mkdir -p mount
./lfs /dev/loop0 mount卸载命令没有差别
umount mount
sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0但从设备上dump出的littlefs镜像，其配置不一定会跟littlefs-fuse的默认配置匹配。
此时为了能正确挂载，以及准确地模拟littlefs在设备上运行的情况，我们需要将配置改成一样的。
解决方式一，直接修改源码，例如
diff --git a/lfs_fuse.c b/lfs_fuse.c
index 3c87dad..d1a99a2 100644
--- a/lfs_fuse.c
+++ b/lfs_fuse.c

既然可以在PC上模拟挂载和读写，那首先最直观的，就是可以在littlefs的源码中按需添加调试代码，再重新挂载dump出来的镜像，通过打印来分析问题。
其次，必要的时候，我们还可以上gdb
make DEBUG=1 clean all # build with debug info
gdb --args ./lfs -d /dev/loop0 mount # run with gdb本文地址：https://www.cnblogs.com/zqb-all/p/12078659.html
