"F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is flash-friendly file system which was merged
into Linux kernel v3.8 in 2013.
The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start, takes into
account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as
solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards).
F2FS was designed on a basis of a log-structured file system approach, which
remedies some known issues of the older log structured file systems, such as
the snowball effect of wandering trees and high cleaning overhead. In addition,
since a NAND-based storage device shows different characteristics according to
its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme (such as the Flash
Translation Layer or FTL), it supports various parameters not only for
configuring on-disk layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning
algorithm.", quote by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F2FS.
The source codes for F2FS are available from:

This patch has been integrated in OpenMandriva Lx 3.

util/grub-mkimagexx.c is included in a special way into mkimage.c.
Interoperation between defines makes this very tricky. Instead
just have a clean interface and compile util/grub-mkimage*.c separately
from mkimage.c
Tests file access with all filters enabled. It does it both for local
and network access, due to regression in signature checking over network.
This includes all files in distribution to not depend on existence
of compression tools and gpg. Test preloads all required modules to
avoid having to provide signatures for them.
Still not implemented is file offset filter (is not available in grub
script, needs extra module)
Basic usage would look something like this:
gptprio.next -d usr_dev -u usr_uuid
linuxefi ($usr_dev)/boot/vmlinuz mount.usr=PARTUUID=$usr_uuid
After booting the system should set the 'successful' bit on the
partition that was used.
The first hint of something practical, a command that can restore any of
the GPT structures from the alternate location. New test case must run
under QEMU because the loopback device used by the other unit tests does
not support writing.
This module is a new implementation for reading GUID Partition Tables
which is much stricter than the existing part_gpt module and exports GPT
data directly instead of the generic grub_partition structure. It will
be the basis for modules that need to read/write/update GPT data.
The current code does nothing more than read and verify the table.
the function of these files exceeds what can be sanely handled in shell
in posix-comaptible way. Also writing it in C extends the functionality
to non-UNIX-like OS and minimal environments.
* grub-core/commands/tr.c: New file.
* grub-core/Makefile.core.def: Build rules for new module.
* tests/grub_cmd_tr.in: New test.
* Makefile.util.def: Build rules for new test.
