title: RedBoot FLASH Image System (FIS) Partitions
description: The FLASH Image System (FIS) directory is a flash description
format closely associated with the RedBoot boot loader.
It uses one single flash eraseblock in the flash to store an index of
all images in the flash.
This block size will vary depending on flash but is typically
32 KB in size.

description: a index to the eraseblock containing the FIS directory on this
device. On a flash memory with 32KB eraseblocks, 0 means the first
eraseblock at 0x00000000, 1 means the second eraseblock at 0x00008000 and so on.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
