Hi, all:

My OS is linux 2.6.12 and I check out yaffs from cvs yesterday.

I cut a mtd partition that is 32MB.

/ # df
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mtdblock/0          32768      1152     31616   4% /mnt/f0
I use "cp command" to fulfill the partition and delete the files. It is ok.

But I write a program that write files(each file is 1MB) into /mnt/f0.

I write files that use below function calls:
open (test_file, O_CREAT | O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC | O_SYNC, 0660)
write (fd, wbuf, KB)


It pops out "Allocator out " at 16th files and  the messages is below:
==================================

It still has space on /mnt/f0, It should not pop up this message.
I remove file_1. It is gone. But the free space is the same.


/mnt/f0 # rm file_1
