From fe188c0e084bdf3038dc0ac963c21d764f53f7da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2009 13:41:55 -0400 Subject: ext4: Assure that metadata blocks are written during fsync in no journal mode When there is no journal present, we must attach buffer heads associated with extent tree and indirect blocks to the inode's mapping->private_list via mark_buffer_dirty_inode() so that ext4_sync_file() --- which is called to service fsync() and fdatasync() system calls --- can write out the inode's metadata blocks by calling sync_mapping_buffers().
