Re: [PATCH 9/7] xfs: remove SYNC_BDFLUSH

Is this the journalling part of the code?
Does SYNC_BDFLUSH and SYNC_IOWAIT Determine the journalling?
Is it that the Journals are a part of SYNC_BDFLUSH and SYNC_WAIT
resource locking?

How does the SYNC_TRYLOCK change the scenario? Is it some sort
of semaphore implementation?

Thanks,
