[PATCH] cifs/smb3: directory sync should not return an error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As with NFS, which ignores sync on directory handles,
fsync on a directory handle is a noop for CIFS/SMB3.
Do not return an error on it.  It breaks some database
apps otherwise.
