Hi Ben, Thanks for testing these patches. More below.

If so, I can re-post that patch on top of the first 5 patches in this series, as well as a second patch that allows NFS to use it. > I only have 104Gb of memory on the Re-Export Server (with FS-Cache) so > it is not possible that the file is being served from the page cache. > > We saw this behaviour before on an older set of the patches when our > mount between the Re-Export Server and the Source NFS Filer was using > the "sync" option, but we are now using the "async" option and the > same is happening. > > Mount options: > > Source NFS Server <-- Re-Export Server (with FS-Cache): > > 10.0.0.49:/files /srv/nfs/files nfs > rw,noatime,vers=3,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,acregmin=600,acregmax=600,acdirmin=600,acdirmax=600,hard,nocto,proto=tcp,nconnect=16,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=10.0.0.49,mountvers=3,mountport=37485,mountproto=tcp,fsc,local_lock=none,addr=10.0.0.49 > > Re-Export Server (with FS-Cache) <-- NFS Client: > > 10.0.0.3:/files /mnt/nfs nfs > rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=10.0.0.3,mountvers=3,mountport=20048,mountproto=tcp,local_lock=none,addr=10.0.0.3 > > It is also worth noting this behaviour is not unique to the re-export > use case.
