'''StorageMgr''' is mountpoint manager plugin for PSVita.
StorageMgr is a kernel plugin that automatically mounts/redirects any storage device on any mount points you want.


==What is StorageMgr?==
==Features==
StorageMgrKernel is a kernel plugin that automatically mounts/redirects any storage device on any mount points you want.
*It is configurable through a configuration file (an application could be made to handle this file).
*It is a ALL-IN-ONE storage driver as it replaces usbmc.skprx and gamesd.skprx.
*It fixes many issues in previous drivers.
*Fixed sporadic wakeups when using SD2VITA thanks to xyz.
*It works with taiHEN under henkaku, h-encore, h-encore-2, Trinity, QuickHEN-PSVita or enso.
*When SD2VITA is removed or not working and configured to be redirected to ux0, memcard/internal is by default mounted to ux0.
*Compatible with PSVita FWs 3.60, 3.65, 3.67, 3.68, 3.69, 3.70, 3.71, 3.72 and 3.73.
*Proved working with 2TB exFAT HDD on PSTV (need to be formatted with <=64kB clusters).


=== What are the Advantages of StorageMgr?===
==Installation==
* It is configurable through a configuration file (an application could be made to handle this file)
===Important notes===
* It is a ALL-IN-ONE storage driver as it replaces usbmc.skprx and gamesd.skprx
* If you have issues with USB mounting on PS TV, it is recommended to install Enso (FW 3.60 or 3.65).
* It fixes many issues in previous drivers
* For using USB mass with h-encore and h-encore2, you have to boot PS TV, plug out USB mass, plug in USB mass then launch h-encore. It is annoying to do, so it is recommended to downgrade to FW 3.60 and install Enso.
* Fixed sporadic wakeups when using SD2VITA thanks to xyz
* For big storage capacity devices, like 2TB HDD on PSTV, it need to be formatted as exFAT 64kB clusters or smaller because 128kB clusters and more are not supported by PSVita OS.
* It works with taiHEN under henkaku, h-encore, h-encore-2, Trinity, QuickHEN-PSVita or enso
* For mounting a device as ux0:, this device must have been already mounted as ux0: using [[VitaShell]] at least once to have necessary files on it.
* When SD2VITA is removed or not working and configured to be redirected to ux0, memcard/internal is by default mounted to ux0
* Compatible with PSVita FWs 3.60, 3.65, 3.67, 3.68, 3.69, 3.70, 3.71, 3.72 and 3.73
* Proved working with 2TB exFAT HDD on PSTV (need to be formatted with &lt;=64kB clusters)


=== Future improvements (TO DO) on StorageMgr===
===How to setup===
* Maybe it would be better to autoresolve imports by .yml than by get_module_export function or in the future create a tool to batch resolve
*If it exists, remove gamesd.skprx and usbmc.skprx or any other storage plugin.
* Add more mount points: sd0: for example and adjust missing mount points for some devices
*Copy storage_config.txt to ur0:tai/.
* Add more exported functions (currently only ux0/uma0)
*Copy storagemgr.skprx to ur0:tai/.
* Include in VitaShell once exports are ready
*If it exists, copy ux0:tai/config.txt to ur0:tai/config.txt.
* Create a user app for installation + configuration (+ real time mounting if VitaShell has not all mount points)
*If it exists, remove ux0:tai/config.txt.
* Create a user library
*In ur0:tai/config.txt after *KERNEL create a new line and write: ur0:tai/storagemgr.skprx.
* Detect a key that being pressed would load an alternative config
*Configure ur0:tai/storage_config.txt to what you want.
* Add multi-configs support
*Reboot PSVita.
* Create a taihen-free version for @SKGleba and other &quot;early boot testers&quot; (see YAMT)
* Improve the parser: do not load the file each time
* Improve code readibility: too much indentation is bad
* Improve Speed: 1) improve the parser, 2) reduce delays 3) follow @SKGleba 's advice, 4) use PoS method for GCD
* Fix issues reported in this github repository

== How To use StorageMgr ==
* IMPORTANT: IF YOU HAVE ISSUES WITH USB MOUNTING ON PSTV, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL ENSO (FW 3.60 or 3.65).
* NOTE: for using USB mass with h-encore and h-encore2, you have to boot PSTV, plug out USB mass, plug in USB mass then launch h-encore. It is annoying to do, so it is recommended to downgrade to FW 3.60 and install enso.
* NOTE: for big storage capacity devices, like 2TB HDD on PSTV, it need to be formatted as exFAT 64kB clusters or smaller because 128kB clusters and more are not supported by PSVita OS.
