Subject: NFS O_DIRECT data_updates desync

Message-ID: <20040517153229.GN14755@suse.de> (raw)

Hi Trond, Chuck,

there's a code path in nfs_direct_write_seg where
NFS_I(inode)->data_updates can get out of sync with reality,
which will lead to a BUG() in nfs_clear_inode later on.

I'm attaching a patch that addresses this issue.

Olaf
