The fact that "foo" hit the journal first, and may or may not have hit the final location before the crash doesn't change the fact that you crashed between the two write calls, so "bar" is certainly lost, and if "foo" did hit the disk, then you have a partially written, and thus corrupt file. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTGi73AAoJEI5FoCIzSKrwQq8H/0+giACBP1uYn6fN97yEjGT+ movV5ITpmc6Aq11E2GSF7T60ehTV2Q27PYjxr4YF/fHUfkthBKyISgONwTpXiDUk tYCpMKuAokC5zmhl2UlTwain+Y/By9UnH3DjbAkg7trnGiEcuT6AJXUZh7fYPPXq AKnJNYT+LI8EzPLKRf4DbtL5mPmRsaGDa7zCZ5eVQgtyao1LmaFNTcaojUATpw/n p4cwBHkcauQSs126Z0XryiWXrOpBoYRCwFF42DIlAOd5tSnGyhbE75ul83m5lCC4 BlRrZ6+057RPiYFpmbgTsatatSZBbuGvEwuTICHDJiR8jqmucjarKPg9/wocERA= =PKiE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
