Not really. On a similar situation, on an xfs filesystem you'd get zeroes, and in others, random data (with random results).
But before that 2007 fix, you'd very often get zeroes on XFS, when on other filesystems you yould get valid data. IIUC.
No, data that sometimes happened to be valid, or came from the old version of the file. Not what the file should really contain. Not guaranteed correct data. In that circumstance, zeroes is the only valid data to have.
Anyway, XFS and ext4 seem to be fixed wrt. those problems.
Not really. Rather, programmers have to use "flush" more.
The mentioned 2007 XFS fix apparently helped a lot, without changes to applications.
Yes, I just read about it. I'm probably mixing two issues (the .new/.bak rename issue). - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
