| 8 | F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports |
| 9 | versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on |
| 10 | addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect |
| 11 | of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to |
| 14 | the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS |
| 15 | and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk |
| 16 | layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms. |
