Since commit18290650b1("NFS: Move buffered I/O locking into nfs_file_write()") nfs_file_write() has not flushed the correct byte range during synchronous writes. generic_write_sync() expects that iocb->ki_pos points to the right edge of the range rather than the left edge. To replicate the problem, open a file with O_DSYNC, have the client write at increasing offsets, and then print the successful offsets. Block port 2049 partway through that sequence, and observe that the client application indicates successful writes in advance of what the server received.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
