Subject: [PATCH] rbd: flush dcache after zeroing page data
Date: Thu, 23 May 2013 07:11:45 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <519E0781.4000603@inktank.com> (raw)

Neither zero_bio_chain() nor zero_pages() contains a call to flush
caches after zeroing a portion of a page.  This can cause problems
on architectures that have caches that allow virtual address
aliasing.

This resolves:
