Name : f2fs-tools Product : Fedora 19 Version : 1.1.0 Release : 2.fc19 URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/f2fs-tools/ Summary : Tools for Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS) Description : NAND flash memory-based storage devices, such as SSD, and SD cards, have been widely being used for ranging from mobile to server systems. Since they are known to have different characteristics from the conventional rotational disks,a file system, an upper layer to the storage device, should adapt to the changes from the sketch. F2FS is a new file system carefully designed for the NAND flash memory-based storage devices. We chose a log structure file system approach, but we tried to adapt it to the new form of storage. Also we remedy some known issues of the very old log structured file system, such as snowball effect of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead. Because a NAND-based storage device shows different characteristics according to its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme aka FTL, we add various parameters not only for configuring on-disk layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Updated to version 1.1.0. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jun 13 2013 Eduardo Echeverria <[email protected]> - 1.1.0-2 - Minor fix in the changelogs * Mon Mar 18 2013 Eduardo Echeverria <[email protected]> - 1.1.0-1 - Updated to the new upstream release -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #972469 - mkfs.fsfs builds a FS that's not accepted by the (3.9.4) kernel https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972469 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
