Re: Using sendfile on Ceph FS results in data stuck in client cache

Hi Jeff! (also, I'm also sorry for a resend, I did exactly the same with my message as well!)

Unfortunately, the answer wasn't that simple, as I am on the latest C7 kernel as well
uname -r
3.10.0-1062.1.2.el7.x86_64

I did some more testing, and it's a bit difficult to trigger this reliably when using a line like you do.
If I paste a sendfile+remount line like that, it does seem to trigger a proper write, but, if I put some delay in, it fails. About 10 seconds seems to be enough for me;

root@hermes:~# /root/sendfile sendfile.c /cephyr/dest 27; sleep 10; umount /cephyr; mount /cephyr; ls -l /cephyr/dest
Sent 0 KiB over sendfile(3EXT) of 0 KiB requested 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 25 23:01 /cephyr/dest

Easier yet; I can reliable see the problem immediately by not re-mounting anything and just looking at the files from another node;
root@hermes:~# /root/sendfile sendfile.c /cephyr/dest 27; ls -l /cephyr/dest
Sent 0 KiB over sendfile(3EXT) of 0 KiB requested 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27 Mar 25 23:10 /cephyr/dest
and then, go to another node and look a couple seconds later:
[c3-micke@hebbe-c1 ~]$ ls -l /cephyr/dest
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 25 23:10 /cephyr/dest

Best regards, Mikael
