Prior to linux-2.6.33 only O_DSYNC semantics were implemented and they used the O_SYNC flag. As of linux-2.6.33 this behavior was properly split in to O_SYNC and O_DSYNC respectively. |

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
Documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://wiki.github.com/behlendorf/spl/
