[PATCH 1/1] NFS: Sync the correct byte range during synchronous writes

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

 



Since commit 18290650b1c8 ("NFS: Move buffered I/O locking into
nfs_file_write()") nfs_file_write() has not flushed the correct byte
range during synchronous writes.  generic_write_sync() expects that
iocb->ki_pos points to the right edge of the range rather than the
left edge.

To replicate the problem, open a file with O_DSYNC, have the client
write at increasing offsets, and then print the successful offsets.
Block port 2049 partway through that sequence, and observe that the
client application indicates successful writes in advance of what the
server received.

Fixes: 18290650b1c8 ("NFS: Move buffered I/O locking into nfs_file_write()")
