Description

RTEMS internally should support a 64bit offset for all file system operations. The current off_t is 32bit and so limits the devices supported by the device I/O interface to ~2G. These days 8G flash cards are common.

Please note this does not relate to the external standard interface to the file system only the internal RTEMS code.

The major issue is a suitable type to use.
