Hello, I have a question regarding NFS client behaviour with soft mount. I have gone through the code but could not figure out. Can someone please help me. An application is writing data via NFS client (soft mount, with sync mount option NOT set). The Application thinks that data written was successful but that is not the case. The NFS client will cache all the write request and flush after some time/threshold. The NFS sever is not responding. NFS client retries for 3 times (or retrans) and give up as the NFS server is not responding. Will this cache pages be pinned in memory for ever or freed up (marked clean) as the operation has failed? Will NFS client keep on retrying again?
