Back from the Scottish Hogmanay celebrations now. :) I've run my normal tests on this (based mainly on timing tests which show up exactly how much is being written to disk for 1000 iterations of various fsync/fdatasync/O_SYNC and overwrite/append combinations) and 2.4.0-prerelease seems to be doing the Right Thing. My standard tests for this don't cover msync --- do you want me to give that a try too? --Stephen - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
