Is there some sort of "JFFS2 internals for dummies" guide around?
I'm seeing odd behavior that I can only attribute to linked lists
in RAM becoming corrupt, and I'd like to get a better understanding
of how each list is used, etc...
In the JFFS2 context...
Is the next_phys chain in the raw_node_ref null terminated?
Is the trick with the NULL member in the inode_cache guaranteed to
always work,
or just at boot time?
Can an inode have raw nodes in multiple erase blocks? If so, how is
this
represented in the raw_node_ref?
Does an inode have a fixed or maximum size?
Can a raw node contain data used by mutiple inodes? If not, what
prevents
this from happening?
Some basic definitions would be helpful.
