Topic: YAFFS


  
  Introducing YAFFS, the first NAND-specific flash file system
YAFFS is thus designed to work within the constraints of, and exploit the features of, NAND flash to maximize performance.
YAFFS is already very stable and is rapidly becoming a very useful file system.
YAFFS is realizing all the benefits open source projects hope for and will, we expect, continue to grow.

 YAFFS 2 Specification and Development Notes | Aleph One
Of course the goal is to build yaffs as a file system running on top of real NAND flash, but yaffs can be built to run on a RAM emulation layer for in-kernel testing without NAND flash in the system.
YAFFS can be built to run with either mtd or RAM emulation, or both.
Yaffs structures the spare area with tags used to identify what is stored in the data area.

 YAFFS at AllExperts
YAFFS is the first file system that was designed specifically for NAND flash.
YAFFS is a robust log-structured file system that holds data integrity as a high priority.
If free space on the device is low YAFFS may need to choose a block that has some number of dirty pages and some number of good pages, move the good pages to a new block, mark the old pages as dirty and erase the block.

 YAFFS
YAFFS was designed and written by Charles Manning for the company Aleph One.
YAFFS is a robust journalling file system that holds data integrity as a high priority.
When a chunk is no longer valid (the file is deleted, or parts of the file are overwritten), YAFFS marks a particular byte in the spare area of the chunk as "dirty".
