From 84ebd795613488992b273220c2937d575d27d2a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:56:51 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fake direct I/O mode for data=journal Currently attempts to open a file with O_DIRECT in data=journal mode causes the open to fail with -EINVAL. This makes it very hard to test data=journal mode. So we will let the open succeed, but then always fall back to O_DSYNC buffered writes.
