Preferentially use the vfs_fsync() function. This function was initially introduced in 2.6.29 and took three arguments. As of 2.6.35 the dentry argument was dropped from the function. For older kernels fall back to using file_fsync() which also took three arguments including the dentry. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Issue #52
The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
