[PATCH 7/7] ovl: intercept fsync

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

 



Fsync is really an inode operation (AFAICS) so a doing it on a O_RDONLY
file descriptor should flush any data written through an O_WRONLY file
descriptor for example.

To make this work correctly in case the file is copied up after being
opened for read intercept the fsync fop, similarly to read_iter and mmap.
