I'll see if I can make a test case for this. Presumably the application side is fine, eg it waits on the close completion before doing the execve, not just having it be issued. Outside of that, only other thing I can think of is that the final close would be punted to task_work by fput(), which means there's also a dependency on the task having run its kernel task_work before it's fully closed. I'll be back with more info... -- Jens Axboe
