I have already tested my flash operations, they all worked well. Now, I use the same handle (an instance based on Xilinx BSP) to access to the hardware. And I just have one little question here, what is the appropriate block size for the JFFS2? The size of page is 256B, and size of segment is either 4KB or 64KB.

Sure, I am willing to do that, after fully understanding the file system in RTEMS.

In order to use JFFS2 with compression you have to add "-ljffs2 -lz" to your linker command line.

There is no general purpose flash framework in RTEMS (like MTD on Linux). The JFFS2 uses therefore a framework independent interface.  You have to provide functions for the basic flash operations read, program and erase yourself.  You should test these operations separately.

The first mount of JFFS2 on a completely erased flash may take a while since it is erased block by block and then the clean markers are programmed.

We have a filesystem guide:

Unfortunately it is out dated and incomplete. Maybe you can help to improve it.
