Journaling Block Device layer
-----------------------------
The Journaling Block Device layer (JBD) isn't ext3 specific. It was design to
add journaling capabilities on a block device. The ext3 filesystem code will
inform the JBD of modifications it is performing (called a transaction). The
journal supports the transactions start and stop, and in case of crash, the
journal can replayed the transactions to put the partition back in a
consistent state fast.
