Compiling for iOS - is it possible?

[badger200]

Hi, I'm troubleshooting a badly fragmented HFS+J drive on my 256GB iPad Pro, where it's got 50GB free and yet it returns "disk space full" if anything tries to create a file larger than 200MB. When I do a fsck_hfs -fdyr to rebuild the BTree, it fails saying only 40000 blocks (512 byte) are available, and 450000 are necessary.

This tool seems like the dream that could pinpoint my most fragmented files so I can duplicate them (or move off-device) and delete the originals and then copy back after I'm finally able to rebuild the BTree with fsck_hfs.

I am not much of a programmer but I've fumbled my way through compiling Linux kernels, packages, modules etc. back in the day, so I have some familiarity.

I had to jailbreak my iPad to try and troubleshoot this issue which I've been desperately working on for over 8 months (!!). Cydia offers git, gcc, etc. as free packages to install.

What are the chances this would compile if I go through the trouble to install a gcc environment?

Thanks a million!
