HI all, I am using MeeGo 1.1 on our Moorestown based platform with kernel 2.6.35, we are facing an issue with persistence of filesystem changes across power cycles. Essentially, using ext3 on NAND, we see that any changes made to existing files or creation of new files do not get flushed from the cache to the NAND device during poweroff/shutdown.
However, we’re working around this situation by using “barrier=1” option in /etc/fstab and in this case, the barrier option ensures that all changes are written through immediately to NAND. Since this happens at the cost of performance and NAND device lifetime, this workaround is not desirable. Is this a bug in the Spectra drivers or an issue somewhere else?
