2009-01-29UBIFS: remove fast unmountingArtem Bityutskiy
This UBIFS feature has never worked properly, and it was a mistake to add it because we simply have no use-cases. So, lets still accept the fast_unmount mount option, but ignore it. This does not change much, because UBIFS commit in sync_fs anyway, and sync_fs is called while unmounting. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

2008-12-03UBIFS: introduce compression mount optionsArtem Bityutskiy
It is very handy to be able to change default UBIFS compressor via mount options. Introduce -o compr=<name> mount option support. Currently only "none", "lzo" and "zlib" compressors are supported. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
2008-09-30UBIFS: add no_chk_data_crc mount optionAdrian Hunter
UBIFS read performance can be improved by skipping the CRC check when data nodes are read. This option can be used if the underlying media is considered to be highly reliable. Note that CRCs are always checked for metadata. Read speed on Arm platform with OneNAND goes from 19 MiB/s to 27 MiB/s with data CRC checking disabled.

2008-09-30UBIFS: add bulk-read facilityAdrian Hunter
Some flash media are capable of reading sequentially at faster rates. UBIFS bulk-read facility is designed to take advantage of that, by reading in one go consecutive data nodes that are also located consecutively in the same LEB. Read speed on Arm platform with OneNAND goes from 17 MiB/s to 19 MiB/s. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com>
