Hello Dhivya
There is likely something odd going on in your flash interfacing.
There are a few interacting mechanisms so it is better to try to work on one
issue at a time.
I suggest that you do the following:
* Disable checkpointing and caching by setting
skipCheckpointRead = 1;
skipCheckpointWrite = 1;
nShortOpCaches = 0;
* Enable all verification etc by setting yaffs_treaceMask = 0xffffffff;
Once you have that working then turn the checkpointing and caching back on and
see if that works.
