Say 'Y' if unsure. 51 52 config UBIFS_ATIME_SUPPORT 53 bool "Access time support" 54 default n 55 help 56 Originally UBIFS did not support atime, because it looked like a bad idea due 57 increased flash wear. This option adds atime support and it is disabled by default 58 to preserve the old behavior. If you enable this option, UBIFS starts updating atime, 59 which means that file-system read operations will cause writes (inode atime 60 updates). This may affect file-system performance and increase flash device wear, 61 so be careful. How often atime is updated depends on the selected strategy: 62 strictatime is the "heavy", relatime is "lighter", etc. 63 64 If unsure, say 'N' 65 66 config UBIFS_FS_XATTR 67 bool "UBIFS XATTR support" 68 default y 69 help 70 Saying Y here includes support for extended attributes (xattrs). 71 Xattrs are name:value pairs associated with inodes by 72 the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page). 73 74 If unsure, say Y. 75 76 config UBIFS_FS_SECURITY 77 bool "UBIFS Security Labels" 78 depends on UBIFS_FS_XATTR 79 default y 80 help 81 Security labels provide an access control facility to support Linux 82 Security Models (LSMs) accepted by AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO 83 Linux. This option enables an extended attribute handler for file 84 security labels in the ubifs filesystem, so that it requires enabling 85 the extended attribute support in advance. 86 87 If you are not using a security module, say N. 88 89 config UBIFS_FS_AUTHENTICATION 90 bool "UBIFS authentication support" 91 select KEYS 92 select CRYPTO_HMAC 93 select SYSTEM_DATA_VERIFICATION 94 help 95 Enable authentication support for UBIFS. This feature offers protection 96 against offline changes for both data and metadata of the filesystem. 97 If you say yes here you should also select a hashing algorithm such as 98 sha256, these are not selected automatically since there are many 99 different options. 100 101 endif # UBIFS_FS
