The f2fs has been shipped on many smartphone devices during a couple of years. So, it is worth to relocate Kconfig into main page from misc filesystems for developers to choose it more easily. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>

help
|

F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports
|
|
versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on
|
|
addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect
|
|
of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.
|
|
|
|
Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to
|
|
the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS
|
|
and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
|
|
layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.

Security labels provide an access control facility to support Linux

Security Models (LSMs) accepted by AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO

Linux. This option enables an extended attribute handler for file
|
|
security labels in the f2fs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
|
|
the extended attribute support in advance.
