[sleuthkit-developers] JFFS2 Support

[Jeff C. <li...@fo...>]

I'm looking at writing JFFS2[1] support into TSK, as I have a pair of
images I'm interested in analyzing.  My questions are of semantics for
the code.

It appears that TSK actively tries to avoid external dependencies, for
instance, the ext2 support does not depend upon <linux/ext2.h>.
Understanding that I shouldn't include <linux/jffs2.h> in my source, how
appropriate is it examine that file in my creation of a jffs2.h file for
TSK?  As I tried to familiarize myself with the TSK file system code,
I've made a point of not looking into the jffs2.h file in the Linux
headers, but obviously using that code (even if it were copied along
with the copyright notice), would make my task easier.
