12	  UBIFS is a file system for flash devices which works on top of UBI.

14config UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR
15	bool "Advanced compression options"
16	depends on UBIFS_FS
17	help
18	  This option allows to explicitly choose which compressions, if any,
19	  are enabled in UBIFS. Removing compressors means inability to read
20	  existing file systems.
21
22	  If unsure, say 'N'.

27	default y
28	help
29	   LZO compressor is generally faster than zlib but compresses worse.
30	   Say 'Y' if unsure.

33	bool "ZLIB compression support" if UBIFS_FS_ADVANCED_COMPR

37	  Zlib compresses better than LZO but it is slower. Say 'Y' if unsure.

40	bool "Access time support" if UBIFS_FS
41	depends on UBIFS_FS
42	default n
43	help
44	  Originally UBIFS did not support atime, because it looked like a bad idea due
45	  increased flash wear. This option adds atime support and it is disabled by default
46	  to preserve the old behavior. If you enable this option, UBIFS starts updating atime,
47	  which means that file-system read operations will cause writes (inode atime
48	  updates). This may affect file-system performance and increase flash device wear,
49	  so be careful. How often atime is updated depends on the selected strategy:
50	  strictatime is the "heavy", relatime is "lighter", etc.
51
52	  If unsure, say 'N'
