USBflashdrev
USBflashdrev is a conceptual software interface and protocol designed to provide revision-aware access to USB flash drives. It aims to enable versioned data management, atomic updates, and improved integrity on portable flash storage by associating data blocks with revision metadata and using a consistent semantics across platforms.
The architecture typically envisages a host-side component—such as a kernel driver, a user-space library, or a
Core features include per-block revision tagging, a revision ledger, atomic commit operations, integrity checksums, crash-safe recovery,
Compatibility requires at least a standard USB Mass Storage interface; full benefits assume either host-side support
The term USBflashdrev appears in discussions of portable storage reliability and versioned storage abstractions and does
