EROFS - "Extendable" or "Enhanced"
I just added a link from this article to the EROFS article. But I noticed that whereas, here, we define the acronym as, "Extendable Read-Only File System", the EROFS article calls it "Enhanced Read-Only File System".

It is true that the cited article (ref 17, | "EMUI 9.1 Official Now: What’s New, Supported Huawei devices list, and Download") does define the acronym as "Enhanced Read-Only File System" and that the two different 'decodes' for it are about as easily found as each other on the web - of the first four links found by a Bing search on "EROFS" which give an expansion, two define it as "Enhanced ...",
 * | "Enhanced Read-Only File System - EROFS" at infradead.org/, and
 * | "EROFS: A Compression-friendly Readonly File System for Resource-scarce Devices" at usenix.org

and two as "Extendable ..."
 * | "EROFS Vs Squashfs – Whats The Difference? File Systems Comparison" at gigxp.com/, and
 * | "Huawei brings its EROFS file system, GPU Turbo 3.0 to more phones" at gsmarena.com

However, since the second reference, above, is the paper describing the interface by its designers, I would say that they probably should have the final say about the name of their own work. In addition, the | Linux code in Git hub which implements EROFS refers to it by the same name as it's inventors' paper.

I shall therefore change the name in this article to comply and add their paper as a reference. Hedles (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:25, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
