Цитат на деня в linux-kernel , в <20040310233140.3ce99610.akpm@osdl.org>:

The basic problem which we (mainly Daniel McNeil) have been struggling with is in getting a really reliable fsync() across the page lists while other processes are performing writeback against the same file. It’s like juggling four bars of wet soap with your eyes shut while someone is whacking you with a baseball bat. Daniel pretty much has the problem plugged but I suspect that’s just because we don’t have testcases to trigger the remaining problems. The complexity and additional locking which those patches add is worrisome.
