Currently we do no have a maintainer for the FAT file system. Takahiro
has done a great job fixing some of the most prominent deficiencies. But
still the driver is not in good shape:
I once again ran upon errors in FAT when executing the UEFI SCT.
Here is some of the output of
dosfsck -w -r -l -a -v -t
The full output has hundreds of errors recorded.
While I don't deny shifting to other code base for FAT,
I'm willing to debug the current code if you send me
binary data of corrupted file system.
The first 1MB or so, which will contains directory meta data,
would be good enough as I said before.
I think that most errors stem from wrong long-file-name handling.

The SCT test that really shows the trouble is for
EFI_FILE_PROTOCOL.GetInfo(). On FAT16 it hits the 512 files per
directory limit.
Both on FAT16 and FAT32 it crashes when saving the log.
Observed on qemu_arm64_defconfig with edk2-test HEAD.

BareBox is using a (somewhat outdated) copy of this library with a
little bit of wrapper code:
FatFs - Generic FAT Filesystem Module
http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/00index_e.html
http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/arc/ff13c.zip
The same library is also used for Arduinos:

Shouldn't we try just the same?
Best regards
