Hi, ext3 has a filesystem option, 'data=journal', described in Documentation/filesystems/ext3.txt as 'All data are committed into the journal prior to being written into the main file system.'
On LWN (in comments) and on a few other sites, I see people say that this option is 'broken'. What ordering constraints does it enforce beyond data=ordered? What do the commenters mean when they say it is 'broken'?
