Hi,

Yes the file has no contents until the page cache is flushed. 

I will give the fuse client a try and report back.

Thanks

So can we presume there are no file contents, and it's just 53 blocks of zeros?

This doesn't sound familiar to me; Zheng, do you have any ideas?
Anyway, ceph-fuse shouldn't be susceptible to this bug even with the
page cache enabled; if you're just serving stuff via the web it's
probably a better idea anyway (harder to break, easier to update,
etc).
