Hmm so are you saying we might be missing some buffer modifications right now. What would be a theoretical scenario that will cause these missed events?

[In our system every modified pmem block is also RDMAed to a remote pmem for HA, a missed modification will make the two copies unsynced] Thanks for catching this Boaz > Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
