From fd2cbd4dfa3db477dd6226d387d3f1911d36a6a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Sat, 7 Apr 2012 11:05:19 +0200 Subject: jbd: Write journal superblock with WRITE_FUA after checkpointing If journal superblock is written only in disk's caches and other transaction starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log, it can happen blocks of a new transaction reach the disk before journal superblock. When power failure happens in such case, subsequent journal replay would still try to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update in-memory information only after that.
