seppel Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Hi, just a question to be discussed: Would it... 1. ...be possible to use F2FS as default filesystem for images using the vanilla kernel? 2. ...make sense to use it? benchmarks show that write operations could get a huge boost in comparison to ext4. i believe write operations are quite slow right now (using cubietruck with sd-card) What do you think?
tkaiser Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 What do you mean with 'vanilla'? There's legacy (3.4) or mainline (4.x). With the latter it might be an idea. But a much better idea would be avoiding writes at all (write commits only every x minutes, ramlog). For results have a look at http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/243-debian-jessie-on-bananapi-logging-performance/?p=1455 http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/120-f2fs-for-rootfs/ http://www.lemaker.org/thread-15477-1-1.html
Igor Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 I started to use terminology "Vanilla" which suits www.kernel.org aka mainline kernels. Not exactly correct interpretation but .. 1
seppel Posted September 23, 2015 Author Posted September 23, 2015 Oh Sorry tkaiser, im reading everything here and thought there was no thread about f2fs yet. My fault. Everything regarding f2fs for CT/BananaPi is already there, thanks!
