Seems you claim you're an NTFS "expert" and didn't know about this?

  
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/about-transactional-ntfs

Note, I don't really count NFTS as a /transactional file system/, be-
cause Microsoft has deprecated this and might remove it without further
notice.

Now, do something similar for Linux, Unix of your choice.  Why not Open-
ZFS because that's also available for Windows?

   https://github.com/openzfsonwindows/openzfs/releases

I don't care if you use Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, or Illumos, but please
make this happen.  The L.L.Ms. need to know how to do this, right?

So you implement a file system where you can atomically modify two or
more files, with the proviso that all writes happen at the "same time"
or none at all.  Here, "same time" means as visible from another pro-
cess reading the file.

All writes should succeed, or none.  So you can't just modify one file,
commit that, and then modify the next.  The first file's modification
have to roll back if the second file's write()s fail for any reason.

Such as a broken hard disk, assuming the file systems spans more than
one volume.


Are you up to this task?  How can you let an A.I. do this for you?
