Actually a large part of the problem here is apps expecting things that POSIX doesn't guarantee. XFS delivers fewer of the things that certain app developers expect but that POSIX doesn't require.
Plus, of course, ext* was updated to have those same semantics as XFS, etc, so unless you have CONFIG_EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDERED set, or mount your ext* filesystems with data=ordered you'll get data=writeback as the default. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC
