+the people I hashed this out with so many months ago I think it's a reasonable proposal, but obviously I floated it. :) Let's try to get a second opinion. Again, it's a syntax something like: define void @foo() prefix [i8* x 2] { i8* @a, i8* @b } prologue [i8 x 4] c"\xde\xad\xbe\xef" { ret void } On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 1:58 PM, Ben Gamari <bgamari.foss at

Hi, I have a question on fsync() and ext3's journaling modes. Assume that I call fsync(fd) on a file. If that file is in 'data=journal' mode, would the fsync() return once the data gets safely into the journal ? On the other hand, if that file is in 'data=writeback' mode, would the fsync() return only when the data gets safely into its actual location ? Any help is

Hi all, I'm using dovecot since a few months and it works great. But a few days ago some coworkers mentioned that they got errormessages in their Mailapp. I searched in the logfiles and found this: Sep 14 12:07:35 Mailserv dovecot: IMAP(eckhard-ma-domain-com): fsync(/home/eckhard-ma-domain-com/mails/.INBOX.0002-Druckangebote von Druckereien.0002-schmerk

Hello, We found that fsync and fdatasync syscalls sometimes don't sync data in an ext3 file system under the following conditions. 1. Kernel version is 2.6.6 or later (including 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.9-rc2). 2. Ext3's journalling mode is "data=journal". 3. Create a file (whose size is 1Mbytes) and execute umount/mount. 4. lseek to a random position within the file, write 8192 bytes

Btrfs had some issues with fsync()''ing directories and fsync()''ing after renames. These three new tests cover the 3 different issues we were seeing. This breaks out the dmflakey stuff into a common helper to be shared between generic/311 and generic/320.

I'm currently looking at the behaviour of various Linux filesystems as backends for the Cyrus IMAP server. Like many mail applications, Cyrus makes heavy use of the fsync() system call to ensure that data has hit stable storage before it acknowledges receipt of messages. At the moment fsync() appears to introduce lots of synchronous I/O as data is flushed all the way through to the filesystem

Libvirt has a fixed 15 second timeout for qemu to exit. If qemu is writing to a slow USB key, it can hang (in D state) for much longer than this - many minutes usually. To work around this, fsync the output file before closing the libvirt connection so that qemu shouldn't have anything (much) to write. We have to do this in a few places in the code. This is a hack - it would be better to

Thanks very much for this information. Is this documented? So that I can report this to my boss. I googled this for sort of time. Thanks again! Best Regards Cao 在 2018年02月02日 20:59,

In order to improve the performance of fsync, we use the outstanding ordered extents to avoid looking up the checksum from the csum tree. But we didn''t filter out the ordered extents whose csum is still being calculated, when we got those ordered extents, we had to wait for the csum calculation. It made the performance dropped down suddenly. (On my box, it drop down from 56MB/s to

Hi! Afair, fsync()ing a directory is subject to platform-specific and implementation-defined behaviour, and may either - work as you'd want and (probably) expect - fail with an error - fail silently at least if your application targets more than one operating system/kernel - and even on one and the same platform, different filesystems might exhibit sublty different patterns of behaviour.

If I want to make sure a file has really been deleted do I have to: 1. fsync the file 2. fsync the directory the file is in 3. both? Much thanks. -- Ben Escoto

This check for a user transaction is a bogus: fsync() with an open user transaction is verboten. If the caller is the same process who started a user transaction, and this is a different file, we will deadlock. If it''s the same file, this check means we won''t deadlock, but the transaction will be prematurely closed out. Any user transaction ioctl users should be careful to

Does Fsync of a file on a ext3 fs mounted with "ordered" option(the default) result in flush the dirty data buffers in the fs that correspond to previous transactions. In other words, if I keep writing to file1 (lots of data), log something to file2, keep fsyncing file2 after every write - does this mean file1 data would be committed by fsyncs on file2.
