    nfs: Use UNSTABLE + COMMIT for NFS O_DIRECT writes · fad61490
    Trond Myklebust 提交于
    Currently NFS O_DIRECT writes use FILE_SYNC so that a COMMIT is not
    necessary.  This simplifies the internal logic, but this could be a
    difficult workload for some servers.
    
    Instead, let's send UNSTABLE writes, and after they all complete, send a
    COMMIT for the dirty range.  After the COMMIT returns successfully, then do
    the wake_up or fire off aio_complete().
    
    Test plan:
    Async direct I/O tests against Solaris (or any server that requires
    committed unstable writes).  Reboot server during test.
