If the server reboots before it can commit the unstable writes to disk, then nfs_commit_release_pages() will detect this when it compares the verifier returned by COMMIT to the one returned by WRITE. When this happens, the client needs to resend those writes in order to guarantee that they make it to stable storage. This patch adds a signalling mechanism to notify fsync() that it needs to retry all writes before it can exit. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
