Hi Andrew, We do not currently test SWMR on Windows but we would expect it to work on NTFS. Basically we need for write ordering to be preserved, which is usually true for a straightforward local file system. Parallel file systems like GPFS are also generally supported.
On the topic of parallel file systems, it is unclear if the PVFS (aka OrangeFS) file system is POSIX-enough to support SWMR. PVFS does not implement full POSIX semantics, for performance reasons, but neither is it as sloppy as NFS is.
