From 8d97deb97dde884eb08d0c3b69ccfcc5a43b1350 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bobi Jam Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2014 13:06:44 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] staging/lustre/llite: issue OST_SYNC for fsync() The last parameter @datasync of fsync() has following indication: * if datasync=0, we'd always flush data and metadata * if datasync=1, we'd always flush data while does not flush modifed metadata unless that metadata is needed in order to allow a subsequent data retrieval to be correctly handled. For example, a change to the file size would require a metadata flush. Lustre client can not tell the difference easily, and would issue MDS_SYNC and OST_SYNC in all cases.
