Details

flash gets or sets values in the RTL86 persistent system configuration MIB.
It could be compared to ctlmgr_ctl on FRITZ!OS but accesses stored info.

This command is called by init (lincmd) and udhcpc.sh, see the Examples. See also loadconfig, saveconfig and mib.

On the RTL86 chipset the MIB is the curretly applied and running system configuration in memory, including status info of all
affected system parts. It could be compared to the UI-Modules of FRITZ!OS, containing all live info for the Webinterface.
Most of the MIB system is unused in conjunction with FRITZ!OS. More details in the libmib.so article.

fw 7.30 help from the strings:

Usage: flash cmd

cmd:

  get MIB-NAME                  get a specific mib from flash memory.
  set MIB-NAME MIB-VALUE        set a specific mib into flash memory.

  all [cs|hs]                   dump all flash parameters.
  reset                         reset current setting to default.
  default <cs/hs>               write program default value to flash.
  dump <cs/hs>                  dump flash setting.

  unzip web                     unzip web pages.

Besides this there seem to be the commands loop, check, clear. kill, gethw, sethw.

Examples

From fw 7.30 init (lincmd):

flash check

From fw 7.30 udhcpc.sh which is only called by libmib.so:

flash get UPNP
...
if [ $UPNP = 1 ]; then
...

RTL-Research

Note that research on the RTL86 chipset and its Linux and drivers is very difficult and the results are highly unfinished.

Source

The names of source files compiled into an executable often help to understand function blocks (and show gaps in the docs).
fw 7.30 source files:

$ strings /bin/flash | grep -e '\.c$' -e '\.cpp$'
