What does the trueffs driver in CE 4.1 support ?

My understanding is that Microsoft licensed this from m-
systems, and it is supposed to support Resident Flash
Array for some flash devices, but some previous posts seem
to indicate that it is still legal only for m-system DOC
devices. I understand that is true if I get trueffs from m-
system (its part of the user agreement), but I can't find
that stated for the Microsoft version.

Secondly, the CE 4.1 documentation gives a list of the
MTDs and registration routines that support the different
devices. When I look in
\public\common\oak\drivers\block\trueffs\flcustom.c there
are more flxxx routines listed. I'm specifically
interested in the flRegisterAMDMTD(). Does this support
some AMD chips that would have the Common Flash Interface ?

I'm wondering if there is just a documentation issue and a
few more chips are supported.

There is no "Microsoft" version of TFFS. Whatever is in PB still belongs to
MSystems. I don't believe there is any RFA support in PB, if you need it
you'd have to go to MSystems to get it.
