Details

filesystem_core.squashfs is the rootfs image on models with nested squashfs.

This file is only present in the wrapper system of models with nested squashfs.

It is part of a minimalistic xz compressed squashfs wrapper filesystem.image which looks like this - 7490 fw 7.29:

The image mainly consists of busybox, uClibc and filesystem_core.squashfs.

The magic is performed in inittab and flash_update:

me@fake:$ cat /etc/inittab 

null::sysinit:/bin/mount -t squashfs /filesystem_core.squashfs /core -o loop
null::sysinit:/bin/mount /dev /core/dev -o bind
null::sysinit:/sbin/pivot_root /core/ /core/wrapper/
null::sysinit:/wrapper/sbin/flash_update

/dev/ttyS0::sysinit:/etc/boot.d/1                  # does not exist
/dev/ttyS0::askfirst:-/bin/sh
/dev/ttyS0::shutdown:/bin/sh -c /var/post_install  # does not exist
::shutdown:/bin/kill -- -1
::shutdown:/bin/sleep 5

The sysinit part consists of 4 actions:

  • The filesystem_core.squashfs image is mounted as a squashfs loop device to /core
  • The current /dev devices are bind mounted to /core/dev
  • The current rootfs is moved to /core/wrapper and switched to /core
  • flash_update is called from the wrapper rootfs

Inside the booted 7490 it looks like this:

fritz3:/var/mod/root $ mount

rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on /wrapper type yaffs (ro,relatime)
devtmpfs on /wrapper/dev type devtmpfs (rw,relatime,size=119696k,nr_inodes=29924,mode=755)
/dev/loop0 on / type squashfs (ro,relatime)
devtmpfs on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,relatime,size=119696k,nr_inodes=29924,mode=755)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
tmpfs on /var type tmpfs (rw,relatime)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600,ptmxmode=000)
securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw,relatime)
none on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw,relatime)
/dev/mtdblock4 on /var/flash type yaffs2 (rw,sync,relatime)
/dev/mtdblock5 on /var/media/ftp type yaffs2 (rw,sync,relatime)

As you can see /wrapper is a yaffs filesystem.

It is a decompressed copy of the complete filesystem.image content made by flash_update.
