It is likely to disappear altogether in a future ker=E2= =80=90 nel release. Nowadays, the task performed by bdflush() is han=E2= =80=90 dled by the kernel pdflush thread. As far as I can see, the system call still exists, at least for x86-32. If something further has changed (which exact recent kernel version, an= d, ideally a commit ID), please add this info to this bug. --=20 Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=3Demai= l ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug.-- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
