JOURNAL_SKIP_RECOVER(9) The Linux Journalling API JOURNAL_SKIP_RECOVER(9)NAMEjournal_skip_recovery - Start journal and wipe exiting records
SYNOPSIS
int journal_skip_recovery(journal_t * journal);
ARGUMENTS
journal
journal to startup
DESCRIPTION
Locate any valid recovery information from the journal and set up the
journal structures in memory to ignore it (presumably because the
caller has evidence that it is out of date). This function does´nt
appear to be exorted..
We perform one pass over the journal to allow us to tell the user how
much recovery information is being erased, and to let us initialise the
journal transaction sequence numbers to the next unused ID.
