Hi,
I'm reading through Joseph Pranevich's great document "Wonderful World of Linux 2.6" and I came across something that I'd love to learn more about. In the "Block Device Support" -> "Filesystems" section, reference is made to "Individual directories can now be marked as synchronous so that all changes (additional files, etc.) will be atomic". I searched through the update info at kernelnewbies but couldn't find any more information on this - could someone please elaborate on this? What is it and how does it work? Is there any design documentation for this?
Thanks!
Dan Behman...
