B. will the process be returned after scheduling the writing (say
after passing the data to the elevator)? If this case is true, how
would the process ensure that the data has been actually written on to
the block device?
To ensure the data hit the disk you need to pass O_SYNC
Please help me with some detailed tutorial on
Quit utility.

A 1965 Ford Mustang is a great car. But if you want to go to the moon,
I don't think that's the right vehicle. You'd better design a space craft.

i'm starting to design a course in how to write a PCI driver, and i
was looking for kernel support to simulate hotplugging PCI devices,
and ran across drivers/pci/hotplug/fakephp.c, but that seems to refer
to a legacy feature. is there a more current feature that lets me
do this? thanks.
