Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Fix sys_sync() bug and cleanup code (version 2)
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2009 16:47:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1240498045-14288-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
Hi,
this is a next version of my series of patches to fix sys_sync(). The bug
could result in not all data being safely on disk after sys_sync() returns. It
also fixes the same issue in fsync_super() which leads to assertion failure in
JBD with Jens's per-BDI writeback patches.
The first patch fixes the data integrity problem, the other three patches are
various cleanups.
Honza
