Hi Zach,
While looking at test.kernel.org failures, I noticed that most
of fsx tests with AIO or DIO (or combination) are failing.
I haven't digged deep, but I am assuming its something to do
with your latest cleanup work :(
Can you take a look ? Failures look nasty ..

Yeah, it's right at the tippy top of my list.

Here is the easiest case to fix first :)

So the answer is that -rc1-mm1 doesn't quite have the most recent
version of this patch. Grab the final patch at the end of this post
from Andrew:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/11/234
It fixes up a misunderstanding that came from
generic_file_buffered_write()'s habit of adding its 'written' input into
the amount of bytes it announces having written in its return value.
>From mm-commits it looks like -mm2 will have the full patch.

Hmm.. with that patch applied, I still have fsx failures.
This time read() returning -EINVAL. Are there any other fixes
missing in -mm ?

Probably. I need to get off butt and prepare rc2-mm1.
The below is the full patch against 2.6.19-rc2. Please test this version.
From: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com>
When direct-io falls back to buffered write, it will just leave the dirty data
floating about in pagecache, pending regular writeback.
But normal direct-io semantics are that IO is synchronous, and that it leaves
no pagecache behind.
So change the fallback-to-buffered-write code to sync the file region and to
then strip away the pagecache, just as a regular direct-io write would do.

For what it's worth, the fsx I have here isn't raising errors with the
latest patch on 1k, 2k, and 4k ext3 on a stinky old IDE drive on an old
UP P3.

Okay. Finally tracked down the problem I am running into.
This happens only on reiserfs

read(3, 0x50a800, 2048) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
reiserfs getblock() is returing -EINVAL. There is comment in the code
about tail handling and returning EINVAL. BTW, this is not a -mm
issue, it happens on mainline too...

Does it fail in mainline, or only in
mainline+direct-io-sync-and-invalidate-file-region-when-falling-back-to-buffered-write.patch?
