Well that really sux :-( Considering they manufacture their own MCU/SoC that would have perfect drivers on NuttX directly from vendor that also use the RTOS commercially maybe they do not want to sell their chips or what :\
I had kinda bad experiences with UFS2+J that is UFS2 with Journaling enabled it never caught all problems the fs was corrupted occasionally and silently so I disabled that feature. Happily now I have ZFS which is really amazing solution with snapshots / export / import / encryption / deduplication / compression as per share and even protects data on a simple stripe with smart failing +10 years old disks.. new disks already use ZRAID2 (RAID-5) and the best part is I am totally free of mainboard raid controller :-) Is this SmartFS or something else? https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/components/filesystem/smartfs.html Do you know Alan what is the benefit of the SmartSF over LittleFS?
