Comment #5 on issue 8516 by e...@chromium.org: Follow Ted Ts'o's advice on
writing important files (prefs, etc.)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8516
I spoke with my file system kernel developer friend last night.
They, like agl, recommend that we do *not* fsync, and instead do the
write(other_file)
+ rename(other_file, real_target_file) pattern. All kernels and file
systems will be
fixed for that behavior to be correct.
