最近想起来还有一块mini2440的开发板很久没有使用了，所以想移植一个基于linux3.10的linux系统，但是在移植yaffs2文件系统的时候出现了一些问题，我将其记录下来给其他同学解决同样的问题提供帮助。

1. 首先通过git下载yaffs2代码。然后进入yaffs2文件夹中执行patch-ker.sh，给linux源代码打上patch。

$ git clone git://www.aleph1.co.uk/yaffs2$ cd yaffs2/$ ./patch-ker.sh c m ../linux3.10-mini2440

2. 然后在linux的源代码fs中多了一个yaffs2的文件夹，到此yaffs2文件系统就已经添加到linux3.10中了。在Linux内核源代码根目录运行：make menuconfig，移动上下按键进行配置：

File Systems	---> Miscellaneous filesystems		---> [*]YAFFS2 file system support

并按空格选中它，这样我们就在内核中添加了yaffs2文件系统的支持，按“Exit”退出内核配置。

3. 编译linux源代码。

编译fs/yaffs2/yaffs_vfs.c时出现错误，function ‘create_proc_entry‘没有申明。Google之后才知道原来这个接口在linux-3.10被删除了，应该使用proc_create代替。

4. 修改fs/yaffs2/yaffs_vfs.c

5. 修改之后保存，然后再编译就可以成功了。
