[PATCH 0/1] nilfs2: improve the performance of fdatasync()

From: Ryusuke Konishi
Date: Tue Sep 23 2014 - 06:24:16 EST


Hi Andrew,

Please add the following patch to the queue for the next merge window.

It fixes a longstanding issue of fdatasync() implementation of NILFS2
where fdatasync() will fall back to a full sync most of the time. The
fallback is only necessary for a change of the file size and not for a
change of the various timestamps. Andreas Rohner fixed this issue by
discerning these situations properly.

Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi
