New filesystem is using BTrees for directories. An update will touch multiple blocks, loaded into buffer_head structures with sb_bread.
If update fails (only possible causes are read error & disk full), is it kosher to call bforget on all modified buffer_head structures, or does that have some unintended consequences? - 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/
