I'm viewing the latest source from cvs and I've got
a few questions about Yaffs2, especially when I compared
the code to the development notes(http://www.yaffs.net/node/38):

1. tag information stored in NAND oob
In the development notes, it says Yaffs2 has these tag information
including blockState, chunkId, objectId, nBytes, blockSequence, tagsEcc
and ecc.
But in yaffs_packedtags2.h, it defines
typedef struct {
unsigned sequenceNumber;
unsigned objectId;
unsigned chunkId;
unsigned byteCount;
} yaffs_PackedTags2TagsPart;

typedef struct {
yaffs_PackedTags2TagsPart t;
yaffs_ECCOther ecc;
} yaffs_PackedTags2;

and blockState and ecc on data are missing. I have no idea
about the MTD layer of linux, so I don't know whether the
two tags are handled by MTD.


2. The file $(SRC_ROOT)/patches/yaffs_mtdif2.c isn't useful, is it?
I have checkouted the source code, and done make/insmod directly on linux
without merging Yaffs into kernel tree.
The module works well without any patch when simple file operation is tested
on NANDSim(2kB page, 64B oob, 512MB chipsize).
