No. Basic O_DIRECT does not guarantee atomicity of requests, which is
why we do not have generic locking at the VFS level when reading and
writing. The only guarantee being offered is that O_DIRECT and buffered
writes do not collide.

IOW: I think the basic premise for this test is just broken (as I
commented in the patch series I sent) because it is assuming a
behaviour that is simply not guaranteed.


BTW: note that buffered writes have the same property. They are ordered
when being written into the page cache, meaning that reads on the same
client will see no holes, however if you try to read from another
client, then you will see the same behaviour, with temporary holes
magically appearing in the file.
