Yes, please. :) (At the moment I'm also trying to sort out some ext3 bug where jbd flushes some dirty pages to disk ahead of writing out a transaction but the dirty page writeback fails. Apparently the userspace program is long gone by the time this happens (I haven't been able to verify that they're actually calling fsync) and the FS doesn't shut down, but a later umount/mount/reread shows old file contents. Hence I now know about data_err=abort.) --D > > - Ted > -- > 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 -- 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
