41 bool "Access time support" if UBIFS_FS
42 depends on UBIFS_FS
43 default n
44 help
45 Originally UBIFS did not support atime, because it looked like a bad idea due
46 increased flash wear. This option adds atime support and it is disabled by default
47 to preserve the old behavior. If you enable this option, UBIFS starts updating atime,
48 which means that file-system read operations will cause writes (inode atime
49 updates). This may affect file-system performance and increase flash device wear,
50 so be careful. How often atime is updated depends on the selected strategy:
51 strictatime is the "heavy", relatime is "lighter", etc.

72 Enable encryption of UBIFS files and directories. This
73 feature is similar to ecryptfs, but it is more memory
74 efficient since it avoids caching the encrypted and
75 decrypted pages in the page cache.

82 Security labels provide an access control facility to support Linux
83 Security Models (LSMs) accepted by AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO
84 Linux. This option enables an extended attribute handler for file
85 security labels in the ubifs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
86 the extended attribute support in advance.

88 If you are not using a security module, say N.

94 Enable authentication support for UBIFS. This feature offers protection
95 against offline changes for both data and metadata of the filesystem.
96 If you say yes here you should also select a hashing algorithm such as
97 sha256, these are not selected automatically since there are many
98 different options.
