Thanks a lot Andreas. Your message clarifies everything. > In ext3 this case is handled because the filesystem won't reallocate the > metadata blocks freed from file A before they have been committed to disk. > Also, the operations on file A are guaranteed to complete before or with > operations on file B so fsync(B) will also cause the changes from A to > be flushed to disk at the same time (this is guaranteed to complete before > fsync(B) returns). In order words, each fsync essentailly triggers a jbd commit, right? -Junfeng - 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/ | ||||||||||||
