No! Ignoring the wsize is definitely wrong... If the stripe size is larger than the 'maxwrite' recommended attribute, then the DS is allowed to do a short write, in which case we have to resend. In any case, nfs_flush_multi and nfs_flush_one need a rewrite in order to deal properly with O_DIRECT writes, and so I'm expecting to get rid of the single nfs_page limit for the r/wsize<PAGE_SIZE case. Please don't make any large changes to this code at this time. -- Trond Myklebust Linux NFS client maintainer NetApp Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx www.netapp.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
