Description nagy.attila 2010-01-16 20:30:01 UTC
libeatmydata is a small LD_PRELOAD library designed to (transparently) disable fsync (and friends, like open(O_SYNC)). This has two side-effects: making software that writes data safely to disk a lot quicker and making this software no longer crash safe.

Fix: Patch attached with submission follows:

  DO NOT use libeatmydata on software where you care about what it
  stores. It's called libEAT-MY-DATA for a reason.
