This page has information about file systems which are of interest to CE Linux Forum members.

Open source filesystems

Here are some filesystems designed for and/or commonly used in embedded devices:

  • JFFS2 - The Journalling Flash File System, version 2
  • CRAMFS - A compressed read-only file system for Linux
  • Squash Fs - A (more) compressed read-only file system for Linux
  • YAFFS - Yet Another Flash File System - a file system designed specifically for NAND flash
  • AXFS - Advanced XIP File System
  • ABISS - Active Block I/O Scheduling System - a file system designed for real-time I/O

Other projects

  • XPRESS file system - [See OLS 2006 proceedings, presentation by Chanju Park]
    • I found out at ELC 2007 that this FS project was recently canceled internally at Samsung
