+Subject: [PATCH] ubifs: Drop softlimit and delta fields from struct ubifs_wbuf
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Values of these fields are set during init and never modified. They are
+used (read) in a single function only. There isn't really any reason to
+keep them in a struct. It only makes struct just a bit bigger without
+any visible gain.

+Subject: [PATCH] ubifs: Use dirty_writeback_interval value for wbuf timer
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Right now wbuf timer has hardcoded timeouts and there is no place for
+manual adjustments. Some projects / cases many need that though. Few
+file systems allow doing that by respecting dirty_writeback_interval
+that can be set using sysctl (dirty_writeback_centisecs).
+
+Lowering dirty_writeback_interval could be some way of dealing with user
+space apps lacking proper fsyncs. This is definitely *not* a perfect
+solution but we don't have ideal (user space) world. There were already
+advanced discussions on this matter, mostly when ext4 was introduced and
+it wasn't behaving as ext3. Anyway, the final decision was to add some
+hacks to the ext4, as trying to fix whole user space or adding new API
+was pointless.
+
+We can't (and shouldn't?) just follow ext4. We can't e.g. sync on close
+as this would cause too many commits and flash wearing. On the other
+hand we still should allow some trade-off between -o sync and default
+wbuf timeout. Respecting dirty_writeback_interval should allow some sane
+cutomizations if used warily.
