| |
I'm working with a block device driver. If I try to write into the device using the block_write function and I read after with block_read the behaviour is fine. I can flush the buffers and the driver works ok. But if I make a ext2 file system on the device I have problems. If I copy one file to the new file system and after I compare the two file, the command doesnt give any diferences, but when I flush the buffers and the cache pages the cp command gives me a lot of differences. If I only flush the cache pages it works fine.
I dont know if I'm forgetting something respect the way the ext2 file system works. I hope help. Thanks.
