Subject: JFFS2 mounting performance improvement
>
> It seems that during the JFFS2 mounting, the file system uses the function
cfi_intelext_point (in jffs2_scan_medium function) to point to the flash
memory. This function refers to the flash memory using the virtual address
(map->virt). But if the flash is cached and the burst mode is enabled, it
should be better to refer to the flash with the address map->cached (in the
same way of cfi_intelext_read function, that calls the map_copy_from
function, in which there is a check to verify if the flash is cached). This
improves in a considerable way the performance during the mounting phase,
reducing the mounting time.
> What do you think about? Do you agree with me? Do you know if there are
other points in JFFS2 code that uses the virtual address map->virt instead
of map->cached.
