It also looks like barrier=1 is or will be the default for ext3. Is there a way I can check if this is the case on my system?
Hm, indeed: if write barriers are not available, mounting an XFS filesystem shows:
Filesystem "md0": Disabling barriers, not supported by the underlying device
Mounting the same device when formatted with ext3 does not show this message nor does /proc/mounts reveal anything....could this be tweaked somehow?
