This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled NFS: fsync() should report filesystem errors over EINTR/ERESTARTSYS to the 5.18-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: nfs-fsync-should-report-filesystem-errors-over-eintr.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.18 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 57c9de788c2d9eedef97cfe1688390c39d055d19 Author: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat May 14 10:27:01 2022 -0400 NFS: fsync() should report filesystem errors over EINTR/ERESTARTSYS [ Upstream commit 9641d9bc9b75f11f70646f5c6ee9f5f519a1012e ] If the commit to disk is interrupted, we should still first check for filesystem errors so that we can report them in preference to the error due to the signal.
