21/* Commit data module.
22 *
23 * The purpose of this module is to flush data to disk at regular intervals,
24 * just like the NFS commit operation. There's two rationales for this. First,
25 * it minimises the data loss in case of a power outage without incurring
26 * the poor performance of synchronous I/O. Second, a steady flush rate
27 * can produce better throughput than suddenly dumping massive amounts of
28 * writes onto a disk.
29 *
30 * Tunables:
31 *
32 * commit: dthresh Amount of dirty data that can accumulate
33 * before we commit (sync) it.
34 *
35 * commit: debug Debug level at which to emit messages.
36 *
37 * commit: eof mode String. Tunes how the module tries to guess when
38 * the client has written the last bytes of the file.
39 * Possible values (default = hinted):
40 *
41 * (*) = hinted Some clients (i.e. Windows Explorer) declare the
42 * size of the file before transferring it. With this
43 * option, we remember that hint, and commit after
44 * writing in that file position. If the client
45 * doesn't declare the size of file, commiting on EOF
46 * is not triggered.
47 *
48 * = growth Commits after a write operation has made the file
49 * size grow. If the client declares a file size, it
50 * refrains to commit until the file has reached it.
51 * Useful for defeating writeback on NFS shares.
