    I hope I'm not the only one who read the name of the new file system in their head as "ERO-FS"...

        Do not you think that there are too many file systems now?

              FYI, only other read-only high-compression filesystem is squashfs afaik.

              That area could use some competition.

                Nobody here recognizing EROFS as the error code for Read-only filesystem? I'm disappointed.

                    I red it as "ERORS".

                    Bit more ontopic, what issues/shortcomings with the existing readonly FS (I only know about squashfs) is Huawei trying to address?
