+ UBIFS is a file system for flash devices which works on top of UBI.
+
+config UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR
+ bool "Advanced compression options"
+ depends on UBIFS_FS
+ help
+ This option allows to explicitly choose which compressions, if any,
+ are enabled in UBIFS. Removing compressors means inability to read
+ existing file systems.
+
+ If unsure, say 'N'.
+
+config UBIFS_FS_LZO
+ bool "LZO compression support" if UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR
+ depends on UBIFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ LZO compressor is generally faster than zlib but compresses worse.
+ Say 'Y' if unsure.
+
+config UBIFS_FS_ZLIB
+ bool "ZLIB compression support" if UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR
+ depends on UBIFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ Zlib compresses better than LZO but it is slower. Say 'Y' if unsure.
+
+config UBIFS_ATIME_SUPPORT
+ bool "Access time support" if UBIFS_FS
+ depends on UBIFS_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ Originally UBIFS did not support atime, because it looked like a bad idea due
+ increased flash wear. This option adds atime support and it is disabled by default
+ to preserve the old behavior. If you enable this option, UBIFS starts updating atime,
+ which means that file-system read operations will cause writes (inode atime
+ updates). This may affect file-system performance and increase flash device wear,
+ so be careful. How often atime is updated depends on the selected strategy:
+ strictatime is the "heavy", relatime is "lighter", etc.
+
+ If unsure, say 'N'
+
+config UBIFS_FS_XATTR
+ bool "UBIFS XATTR support"
+ depends on UBIFS_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ Saying Y here includes support for extended attributes (xattrs).
+ Xattrs are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
+ the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page).
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config UBIFS_FS_ENCRYPTION
+ bool "UBIFS Encryption"
+ depends on UBIFS_FS && UBIFS_FS_XATTR && BLOCK
+ select FS_ENCRYPTION
+ default n
+ help
+ Enable encryption of UBIFS files and directories. This
+ feature is similar to ecryptfs, but it is more memory
+ efficient since it avoids caching the encrypted and
+ decrypted pages in the page cache.
+
+config UBIFS_FS_SECURITY
+ bool "UBIFS Security Labels"
+ depends on UBIFS_FS && UBIFS_FS_XATTR
+ default y
+ help
+ 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 ubifs filesystem, so that it requires enabling
+ the extended attribute support in advance.
+
+ If you are not using a security module, say N.
