Subject: [Yaffs] An observation about "useHeaderFileSize" !

Hello Yaffs ers and Charles

I want to report an observation I had when testing Yaffs2 direct
interface. In yaffs2 we have the option of "useHeaderFileSize".
Now in yaffs_Scan() , after we scan all blocks, we check if "yaffs2"
option is enabled or not.

If yaffs2 is enabled we make dev->useHeaderFileSize = 1. Upon enabling
this, the expected result would be , that object
would get the file size from object header, and not from scanned file
size.

Now when we do dumpDir(const char* path), my observation was that , it
shows all the files , but sizes are shown as 0.

At this point , I tried to make dev->useHeaderFileSize = 0. So now , we
directly assign the object's scanned file size
to object's file size and VOILA!!! Everything seems to work fine. This
time dumpDir(const char* path) returns all the files
with there respective sizes!!!

Please let me know if you have encountered any such issues!

Thanks

Abhishek
