I agree with Daniel - consistency should be a primary objective of any journaling file system.
Would it be possible to do something like store both the old and new inodes when a rename occurs, and to remove the old inode when the data is written? This way it could operate like it is currently, except that after a system crash it would be able to see that the new inode is invalid and restore the old one instead. -- Ext4 data loss https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/317781 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
