Message-ID: <20010207184223.5309.qmail@g.bio.cse.psu.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: Message from "rob pike" <rob@plan9.bell-labs.com> of "Wed, 07 Feb 2001 10:23:44 EST." <20010207152343.C1B91199E1@mail.cse.psu.edu>
| Fsync etc. is at the wrong level. The issue is not a system-wide
| question, but a file-server question.
So how does an application with an open fd assure that the write()s it
has issued are really on disk? It's impossible for that program to tell
which file server you're using. In fact, you might be using several,
if they're stacked up.
