A curiosity question regarding torn pages: How does this work on file systems that don't write in-place, but instead
alwaysdo copy-on-write?
My example would be Sun's ZFS file system (In Solaris & BSD). Because of its "snapshot & rollback" functionality, it
neverwrites a page in-place, but instead always copies it to another place on disk. How does this affect the
corruptioncaused by a torn write?
Can we end up with horrible corruption on this type of filesystem where we wouldn't on normal file systems, where we
arewriting to a previously zeroed area on disk?
Sorry if this is a stupid question... Hopefully somebody can reassure me that this isn't an issue.
