I'm using JFFS2 on eCos and it works perfectly with
~    - the test programs
~    - a small shell i wrote
The problem appears when i use Wonka (an open source JVM) linked
against eCos. Wonka uses the native hostos filesystem, so there's a
mapping between wonka and eCos functions.
The mount is currently done by eCos. I added a call to the MTAB_ENTRY
macro in 'packages/fs/jffs2/v2_0/src/fs-ecos.c'.
When i launch Wonka, it is correctly rooted into the filesystem; it
finds the boot classes package '/system/wre.jar' and loads it. Then,
in an fs-unrelated function, it freezes while doing something with
kernel messages.
I think there is a conflict between Wonka threads and the garbage
collector of JFFS2.
What do you think about this?

Best regards,

~    Marco
