From: Dave Kleikamp Date: Mon, 2 May 2005 18:25:08 +0000 (-0600) Subject: [PATCH] JFS: Write journal sync points more often X-Git-Tag: v2.6.12-rc4~136^2~1 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1c6278295d6482edaaaef5faa64b18f17b3319b7;p=pandora-kernel.git [PATCH] JFS: Write journal sync points more often This patch adds jfs_syncpt, which calls lmLogSync to write sync points to the journal both in jfs_sync_fs and when sync barrier processing completes. lmLogSync accomplishes two things: 1) it pushes logged-but-dirty metadata pages to disk, and 2) it writes a sync record to the journal so that jfs_fsck doesn't need to replay more transactions than is necessary.
