... I forgot there is also a version that emulates into a file for use in
application space.

Jeffrey

YAFFS CVS includes two nand emulators. Both of these read and write with
NAND restrictions. eg. you need to erase to turn zero bits back to one bits.
One is yaffs_ramem.c. This includes code to force bit errors and bad blocks
to test the error handling logic. I thought of being able to change this via
procfs, but that never became important enough for me to do anything.

One is mtdemul/nandemul.c the main purpose of this is to test the mtd
interface without having real nand. (eg on a PC).

Feel free to go hack.

Hi, sorry if this question sounds a bit OT, but i read with interest the
idea to design a NAND flash emulator. Is there any progress currently in
that area? If so, i would like to know about it, as well as perhaps if i
can, offer help in it.

Thanks
-jf
