+config YAFFS_FS
+ tristate "YAFFS2 file system support"
+ default n
+ depends on MTD
+ select YAFFS_YAFFS1
+ select YAFFS_YAFFS2
+ help
+ YAFFS2, or Yet Another Flash Filing System, is a filing system
+ optimised for NAND Flash chips.
+
+ To compile the YAFFS2 file system support as a module, choose M
+ here: the module will be called yaffs2.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+ Further information on YAFFS2 is available at
+ <http://www.aleph1.co.uk/yaffs/>.
+
+config YAFFS_YAFFS1
+ bool "512 byte / page devices"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ Enable YAFFS1 support -- yaffs for 512 byte / page devices
+
+ Not needed for 2K-page devices.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config YAFFS_9BYTE_TAGS
+ bool "Use older-style on-NAND data format with pageStatus byte"
+ depends on YAFFS_YAFFS1
+ default n
+ help
+
+ Older-style on-NAND data format has a "pageStatus" byte to record
+ chunk/page state. This byte is zero when the page is discarded.
+ Choose this option if you have existing on-NAND data using this
+ format that you need to continue to support. New data written
+ also uses the older-style format. Note: Use of this option
+ generally requires that MTD's oob layout be adjusted to use the
+ older-style format. See notes on tags formats and MTD versions
+ in yaffs_mtdif1.c.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config YAFFS_DOES_ECC
+ bool "Lets Yaffs do its own ECC"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS && YAFFS_YAFFS1 && !YAFFS_9BYTE_TAGS
+ default n
+ help
+ This enables Yaffs to use its own ECC functions instead of using
+ the ones from the generic MTD-NAND driver.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config YAFFS_ECC_WRONG_ORDER
+ bool "Use the same ecc byte order as Steven Hill's nand_ecc.c"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS && YAFFS_DOES_ECC && !YAFFS_9BYTE_TAGS
+ default n
+ help
+ This makes yaffs_ecc.c use the same ecc byte order as Steven
+ Hill's nand_ecc.c. If not set, then you get the same ecc byte
+ order as SmartMedia.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config YAFFS_YAFFS2
+ bool "2048 byte (or larger) / page devices"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ Enable YAFFS2 support -- yaffs for >= 2K bytes per page devices
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config YAFFS_AUTO_YAFFS2
+ bool "Autoselect yaffs2 format"
+ depends on YAFFS_YAFFS2
+ default y
+ help
+ Without this, you need to explicitely use yaffs2 as the file
+ system type. With this, you can say "yaffs" and yaffs or yaffs2
+ will be used depending on the device page size (yaffs on
+ 512-byte page devices, yaffs2 on 2K page devices).
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config YAFFS_DISABLE_LAZY_LOAD
+ bool "Disable lazy loading"
+ depends on YAFFS_YAFFS2
+ default n
+ help
+ "Lazy loading" defers loading file details until they are
+ required. This saves mount time, but makes the first look-up
+ a bit longer.
+
+ Lazy loading will only happen if enabled by this option being 'n'
+ and if the appropriate tags are available, else yaffs2 will
+ automatically fall back to immediate loading and do the right
+ thing.
+
+ Lazy laoding will be required by checkpointing.
+
+ Setting this to 'y' will disable lazy loading.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config YAFFS_CHECKPOINT_RESERVED_BLOCKS
+ int "Reserved blocks for checkpointing"
+ depends on YAFFS_YAFFS2
+ default 10
+ help
+ Give the number of Blocks to reserve for checkpointing.
+ Checkpointing saves the state at unmount so that mounting is
+ much faster as a scan of all the flash to regenerate this state
+ is not needed. These Blocks are reserved per partition, so if
+ you have very small partitions the default (10) may be a mess
+ for you. You can set this value to 0, but that does not mean
+ checkpointing is disabled at all. There only won't be any
+ specially reserved blocks for checkpointing, so if there is
+ enough free space on the filesystem, it will be used for
+ checkpointing.
+
+ If unsure, leave at default (10), but don't wonder if there are
+ always 2MB used on your large page device partition (10 x 2k
+ pagesize). When using small partitions or when being very small
+ on space, you probably want to set this to zero.
+
+config YAFFS_DISABLE_WIDE_TNODES
+ bool "Turn off wide tnodes"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ Wide tnodes are only used for NAND arrays >=32MB for 512-byte
+ page devices and >=128MB for 2k page devices. They use slightly
+ more RAM but are faster since they eliminate chunk group
+ searching.
+
+ Setting this to 'y' will force tnode width to 16 bits and save
+ memory but make large arrays slower.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config YAFFS_ALWAYS_CHECK_CHUNK_ERASED
+ bool "Force chunk erase check"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ Normally YAFFS only checks chunks before writing until an erased
+ chunk is found. This helps to detect any partially written
+ chunks that might have happened due to power loss.
+
+ Enabling this forces on the test that chunks are erased in flash
+ before writing to them. This takes more time but is potentially
+ a bit more secure.
+
+ Suggest setting Y during development and ironing out driver
+ issues etc. Suggest setting to N if you want faster writing.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config YAFFS_SHORT_NAMES_IN_RAM
+ bool "Cache short names in RAM"
+ depends on YAFFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ If this config is set, then short names are stored with the
+ yaffs_Object. This costs an extra 16 bytes of RAM per object,
+ but makes look-ups faster.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
