So the real problem is that we're not waiting for the outstanding commit? OK, so how about something like the following then? 8<------------------------------------------ >From f2b7634d8a05100631ab019d4fb5092ed5fe3c03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2018 15:22:31 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Don't circumvent wait for commit completion We do want to respect the FLUSH_SYNC argument to nfs_commit_inode() to ensure that all outstanding COMMIT requests to the inode in question are complete. Currently we will exit early if we did not have to schedule a new COMMIT request. Fixes: dc4fd9ab01ab3 ("nfs: don't wait on commit in nfs_commit_inode()...")
