Now for real - two updates that went into Linus' tree recently and fix issues with peridic metadata writeback and sync not beeing able write file size updates to disk in some cases. The executive summary is: the writeback code slowly decided that the XFS behaviour in corner cases equals to livelocking, and XFS made some of this behaviour much more likely since the introduction of the delaylog mode. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
