From 42a50a981577e43928cc23b048cf0a3833bb8da4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2011 11:46:31 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] NFS - fix recent breakage to NFS error handling. commit 2edb6bc3852c681c0d948245bd55108dc6407604 upstream. From c6d615d2b97fe305cbf123a8751ced859dca1d5e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2011 09:39:05 +1100 Subject: NFS - fix recent breakage to NFS error handling. commit 02c24a82187d5a628c68edfe71ae60dc135cd178 made a small and presumably unintended change to write error handling in NFS. Previously an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would only be of interest if nfs_file_fsync did not return an error. After this commit, an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would mean that (the rest of) nfs_file_fsync would not even be called. This means that: 1/ you are more likely to see EIO than e.g. EDQUOT or ENOSPC. 2/ NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE remains set for longer so more writes are synchronous. This patch restores previous behaviour.
