I intend to write a snapshot module for Ext2/3 file-systems.
For that i need to make sure that FS is in consistent state before taking snapshot.
For ex. in case of UFS, the superblock has a fs_clean flag which is set to be
FSSTABLE to tell that its in consistent state. (otherwise its set to FSACTIVE)
I m not able to find any such information for Ext2/Ext3.
(The superblock does have a s_state flag, but that just tells whether file-system
was cleanly unmounted or not.)
Pls, let me know if you have any clue/info on this aspect.
Thanks & Regards, Satish Singhal E-Mail: satish_single@hotmail.com
