Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, I got wondering as to whether the various journaling file system activities were designed to survive the occasional unclean shutdown or were designed to allow the user to just pull the plug as a regular means of shutting down. Thoughts?
