Phillipp and Lars,

can you look at the changes in

	http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg35884.html

and

	http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg36001.html

and see how drbd can be adapted to it?  It's one of two drivers still
missing, and because it's not quite intuitive what it's doing it's
very hard for Tejun and me to help.
Hi Christoph,

I was able to finish the greater part of the necessary work today.
You can find it there:

git://git.drbd.org/linux-2.6-drbd.git flush-fua

Of course that is based on

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/misc.git flush-fua

REQ_HARDBARRIER is not yet completely eliminated from drbd, but I
am very confident that I will be able to finish that by tomorrow.

Best,
 Phil
