IMHO nothing bad happens. Per file file->fop is initialized to inode->i_fop in do_dentry_open. We are not changing inode->i_fop, so they still point to cached file operations. The file which is open with O_DIRECT will get its fop changed to cifs_file_direct_ops while the other file can still use cifs_file_strict_ops. Also, while checking, I notice that additional check for CIFS_MOUNT_NO_BRL is needed. if (cifs_sb->mnt_cifs_flags & CIFS_MOUNT_NO_BRL) inode->i_fop = &cifs_file_direct_nobrl_ops; else inode->i_fop = &cifs_file_direct_ops; If there is no objection, I will send v2 included above additional check.
