The patch is to fix the regression bug brought from commit 6b933c8e...( 'ocfs2: Avoid direct write if we fall back to buffered I/O'): http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1285 The commit 6b933c8e changed __generic_file_aio_write to generic_file_buffered_write, which didn't call filemap_{write,wait}_range to flush the pagecaches when we were falling O_DIRECT writes back to buffered ones. it did hurt the O_DIRECT semantics somehow in extented odirect writes. This patch tries to guarantee O_DIRECT writes of 'fall back to buffered' to be correctly flushed. Signed-off-by: Tristan Ye <tristan.ye@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com>
