Flash device DTL algorithm in Linux
 
Does anyone know which Flash Translation Layer (FTL) algorithm is implemented in the Linux 2.6 kernel to manage USB Flash devices?

P.S: The DTL in the title should be FTL

Thank you.

Look here (in your kernel source) for more info:
.../Documentation/devices.txt

Or look here (also in your kernel source tree):
.../drivers/mtd/nftl.c
