Modern flash storage uses dynamic adjustment of voltage levels as the flash cells age, and error correcting codes to compensate for flash reliability challenges. This means accessing flash using eMMC, SATA, SAS, etc., and that rules out YAFFS2. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
