If syncfs(2) is not present, we have to use sync(2). That means you have N daemons calling sync(2) to force a commit on a single fs, but all other mounted fs's are also synced... which means N times the sync(2) calls. Fortunately syncfs(2) has been around for a while now, so this only affects really old distros. And even when glibc does not have a syscall wrapper for it, we try to call the syscall directly. sage _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
