Did you know that until test2-mm3, nothing would report errors that occurred on non-synchronous writes? There was no infrastructure to propagate the error back to userspace. If you wrote a page, the write failed on an intermittent I/O error, and then read again, you'd silently get back the old page. -- Matt Mackall : http://www.selenic.com : of or relating to the moon - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
