Both approaches have their drawbacks, but easy and should work. -- Best regards, Artem Bityutskiy (Битюцкий Артём) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Please, no private mails. This was a requirement for SLC flashes as well, at least Toshiba's data sheets noted this. JFFS2 satisfies this requirement. -- Best regards, Artem Bityutskiy (Битюцкий Артём) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

JFFS2 satisfies this requirement. I think the bigger issue is supporting multi-bit error correction via BCH. The current 1-bit correcting Hamming code is inadequate for MLC. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
