Do you mean to use YAFFS without linux?
If so, yes - it's called 'YAFFS direct' which does indeed provide a
simplified set of calls which replace the Linux VFS layer. See the diag here
for the various ways yuaffs can be fitted into OSes:

It is. It's not quite what it was designed for, but it does work fine and
can make sense. You'll need to tweak things a bit. There have been a few
posts to this list over the last 2 months asking the same question. Find one
of those for the details.
