/*
- * Sort the log items in the transaction. Cancelled buffers need
- * to be put first so they are processed before any items that might
- * modify the buffers. If they are cancelled, then the modifications
- * don't need to be replayed.
+ * Sort the log items in the transaction.
+ *
+ * The ordering constraints are defined by the inode allocation and unlink
+ * behaviour. The rules are:
+ *
+ * 1. Every item is only logged once in a given transaction. Hence it
+ * represents the last logged state of the item. Hence ordering is
+ * dependent on the order in which operations need to be performed so
+ * required initial conditions are always met.
+ *
+ * 2. Cancelled buffers are recorded in pass 1 in a separate table and
+ * there's nothing to replay from them so we can simply cull them
+ * from the transaction. However, we can't do that until after we've
+ * replayed all the other items because they may be dependent on the
+ * cancelled buffer and replaying the cancelled buffer can remove it
+ * form the cancelled buffer table. Hence they have tobe done last.
+ *
+ * 3. Inode allocation buffers must be replayed before inode items that
+ * read the buffer and replay changes into it.
+ *
+ * 4. Inode unlink buffers must be replayed after inode items are replayed.
+ * This ensures that inodes are completely flushed to the inode buffer
+ * in a "free" state before we remove the unlinked inode list pointer.
+ *
+ * Hence the ordering needs to be inode allocation buffers first, inode items
+ * second, inode unlink buffers third and cancelled buffers last.
+ *
+ * But there's a problem with that - we can't tell an inode allocation buffer
+ * apart from a regular buffer, so we can't separate them. We can, however,
+ * tell an inode unlink buffer from the others, and so we can separate them out
+ * from all the other buffers and move them to last.
+ *
+ * Hence, 4 lists, in order from head to tail:
+ * - buffer_list for all buffers except cancelled/inode unlink buffers
+ * - item_list for all non-buffer items
+ * - inode_buffer_list for inode unlink buffers
+ * - cancel_list for the cancelled buffers
