EXT3 Trouble on 2.4.4
All,
I know that there is no official port to Kernel 2.4.4, thus I may not get any
help, however I am hoping someone could point me in the right direction for
my problem. I am currently forced to use kernel 2.4.4 for reasons out of
my control (embedded board).
Here are the exact versions of everything I'm running:
ExT3 Version: ext3-2.4-0.9.6-248
Util Version: util-linux-2.11f.tar.bz2

making 0.0.6b a module
I have ext3 0.0.6b + 2.2.19 and cannot get ext3 to compile as a module.
If I try to modularize it, or turn in off completely, the kernel build
fails. Is there an easy fix for this, or is there something that I am
missing?
Thanks.

Interesting reading but, as others have noted, of limited use.

/proc/sys/vm/bdflush
I'm lacking some understanding of how to tune / when to tune /proc/sys/vm/bdflush
Where can I read up on this?
Our current problem: Load is low, but ever so often the system decides
to do some serious disk I/O which causes all processes to wait for
disk I/O -- load explodes (rises linear up into the 20-30ies) just to
fall linearly (spelling?) right after that.

increasing ext3 or io responsiveness
Our Invoice posting routine (intensive harddrive io) freezes every few
seconds to flush the cache. Reading this:

PATCH for filesys corruption in ext3 with data=journal
Hi,
as I mentioned in earlier mail to ext3-users I have been getting some
corruption on an ext3 filesystem that has been serving NFS. I am now
confident that I fully understand the problem and have a patch.
It only affects data=journal mode and I wonder if it might also be the
cause of the corruption noted by a number of people on linux-kernel.
First I will explain the problem. Then display

Get this warning on bootup ext3 file checks on 2.6.* kernels.
Apparently harmless, but how do I fix this?

Performance problem with mysql on a 3ware 1+0 raid array
Hi all,
We are observing a consistent interval of about 4 minutes at which there
are large sustained writes to disk that causes mysqld to block and not
respond for the entire period.
We are using data=journal with a 128M journal and the filesystem is
150GB in size.
We get about 300kb/sec in writes and that will jump to about 2000kb/sec
during the periods of large sustained writes. Those

data corrupting bug in 2.4.20 ext3, data=journal
In 2.4.20-pre5 an optimisation was made to the ext3 fsync function
which can very easily cause file data corruption at unmount time. This
was first reported by Nick Piggin on November 29th (one day after 2.4.20 was
released, and three months after the bug was merged. Unfortunate timing)
This only affects filesystems which were mounted with the `data=journal'
option. Or files which are

bad performance on 2.4.23
hi,
- big and ugly mail. If you don't like them, delete it now :-) -
I have collected and classified some information of:

And I observed that ext3 performance is worse than previous
kernels(2.4.19...). -ac and -aa are here only as reference.
Complete information is in the upper URL.

External journal on flash drive
Hi,
I'd like to use a flash drive as a journal device, with the purpose of
keeping the main disk drive spun down as long as possible. I have a
couple of questions:
1) Does the journaling code spread write accesses to the journal device
evenly, as I hope, or are there blocks that are particularly "hot"?
I.e., do I have to worry about the flash device dying quickly because of

Gigabit Throughput too low
Hi I was wondering if you ever got better performance out of your
Gigabit/IDE/Fc2?
I am facing a similar situation. I am running FC2 with Samba 3.x
My problem lies in not that I am limited to 10 MBytes per second
sustained. I think it's related to this pdflush and how it's buffers
are setup. (I have been doing some research and before 2.6 kernels

Patches since 2.4.19
Just looking through the 2.4.20pre changelogs, I see there's been a bunch
of Ext3 patches since 2.4.19. I'm keen to take advantage of any bug fixes
and performance improvements, but am nervous about using 2.4.20 until
it's completed its release cycle.
Is there any way to get a patch just containing the Ext3 changes? Are
there any changes since 2.4.20 that are very important, either
