Re: got some strange vfsync messages about dirty buffer!

:What does this kernel messages mean?
:
:Aug 11 19:27:05  kernel: Warning: vfsync_bp skipping dirty buffer
:0xc2d52bec
:Aug 11 19:57:40  kernel: Warning: vfsync_bp skipping dirty buffer
:0xc2ecb6a4
:Aug 11 20:58:52  kernel: Warning: vfsync_bp skipping dirty buffer
:0xc2c6c150

    You can ignore these warnings.  They typically occur under heavy
    I/O loads.  The buffer will still be synced (eventually).

:My machine is a eeepc900 with a ssd disk, can it be that the ssd is not

:I'm using UFS as filesystem, beacuse i read somewhere that Matt wrote we 
:should't use HammerFS with filesystems under 40GB, this drive is on 16GB.

:And i wonder what this means too:
:
:ad2: FAILURE - SET_MULTI status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR> error=4<ABORTED>
:ad2: 15391MB <ASUS-PHISON SSD TST2.04P> at ata1-master UDMA66

    UFS is probably the best choice for a 16G drive.

    The SET_MULTI failures can probably be ignored.  My guess is that the
    SSD simply does not support the command.... not surprising if it is a
    modern SATA drive.
