| 5 | help |
| 6 | JFFS2 is the second generation of the Journalling Flash File System |
| 7 | for use on diskless embedded devices. It provides improved wear |
| 8 | levelling, compression and support for hard links. You cannot use |
| 9 | this on normal block devices, only on 'MTD' devices. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Further information on the design and implementation of JFFS2 is |
| 12 | available at <http://sources.redhat.com/jffs2/>. |

| 18 | help |
| 19 | This controls the amount of debugging messages produced by the JFFS2 |
| 20 | code. Set it to zero for use in production systems. For evaluation, |
| 21 | testing and debugging, it's advisable to set it to one. This will |
| 22 | enable a few assertions and will print debugging messages at the |
| 23 | KERN_DEBUG loglevel, where they won't normally be visible. Level 2 |
| 24 | is unlikely to be useful - it enables extra debugging in certain |
| 25 | areas which at one point needed debugging, but when the bugs were |
| 26 | located and fixed, the detailed messages were relegated to level 2. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | If reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of the |
| 29 | messages at debug level 1 while the misbehaviour was occurring. |
