The convenience functions :cpp:func:`esp_vfs_fat_sdmmc_mount`, :cpp:func:`esp_vfs_fat_sdspi_mount`, and :cpp:func:`esp_vfs_fat_sdcard_unmount` wrap the steps described above and also handle SD card initialization. These functions are described in the next section.

Differences from the POSIX Standard
-----------------------------------
#. :cpp:func:`link`: Because FAT filesystem does not support hardlinks, :cpp:func:`link` copies contents of the file instead. (This only applies to files on FatFs volumes.)
#. :cpp:func:`unlink`: Attempting to remove an open file will fail with ``EBUSY`` when ``CONFIG_FATFS_FS_LOCK`` is enabled. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined and may cause file system corruption.
