2009-03-26UBIFS: add R/O compatibilityArtem Bityutskiy
Now UBIFS is supported by u-boot. If we ever decide to change the media format, then people will have to upgrade their u-boots to mount new format images. However, very often it is possible to preserve R/O forward-compatibility, even though the write forward-compatibility is not preserved. This patch introduces a new super-block field which stores the R/O compatibility version.

2008-12-03UBIFS: slight compression optimizationArtem Bityutskiy
If data does not compress, it is better to leave it uncompressed because we'll read it faster then. So do not compress data if we save less than 64 bytes. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2008-09-05UBIFS: make minimum fanout 3Artem Bityutskiy
UBIFS does not really work correctly when fanout is 2, because of the way we manage the indexing tree. It may just become a list and UBIFS screws up. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-08-13UBIFS: reserve more space for indexArtem Bityutskiy
At the moment UBIFS reserves twice old index size space for the index. But this is not enough in some cases, because if the indexing node are very fragmented and there are many small gaps, while the dirty index has big znodes - in-the-gaps method would fail. Thus, reserve trise as more, in which case we are guaranteed that we can commit in any case. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
