Please start unsing reply-all.
Sure will it as every thread on a multithreaded OS does...

Thanks,

Thank you for kind reply.

1. As you said just now"there is only a background thread to do many things",  dose "many things" include both GC and synchronizing data?
2. If I write a file(1 KB) to ubifs mounted in 34MiB mtd, can i write 34,000 times or 34000/4 times(the real disk usage of a 1KB file is 4KB)£¿

Many Thanks,
Andy

I said GC can happen in many contexts. Also in the calling one.
To figure what the background thread exactly does see function ubifs_bg_thread().

The minimal file size on UBIFS is 4KiB. You can also not use all 34MiB, since UBIFS needs some LEBs for the journal, free space accounting,
master nodes, etc...
