From: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@xxxxxxxxxx> NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA cannot be ignored, even if we have a delegation. We're still having some problems with data corruption when multiple clients are appending to a file and those clients are being granted write delegations on open. To reproduce: Client A: vi /mnt/`hostname -s` while :; do echo "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" >>/mnt/file; sleep $(( $RANDOM % 5 )); done Client B: vi /mnt/`hostname -s` while :; do echo "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" >>/mnt/file; sleep $(( $RANDOM % 5 )); done What's happening is that in nfs_update_inode() we're recognizing that the file size has changed and we're setting NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA accordingly, but then we ignore the cache_validity flags in nfs_write_pageuptodate() because we have a delegation. As a result, in nfs_updatepage() we're extending the write to cover the full page even though we've not read in the data to begin with.
