fsyncs, which typically occur during unmounting, will drain all dirty buffers even if it takes multiple passes to do so. The guarentee was mangled by the last patch which solved a problem due to -current disabling interrupts while holding giant (which caused an infinite spin loop waiting for I/O to complete). -stable does not have either patch, but has a similar bug in the original spec_fsync() code which is triggered by a bug in the softupdates umount code, a fix for which will be committed to -current as soon as Kirk stamps it. Then both solutions will be MFC'd to -stable. -stable currently suffers from a combination of the softupdates bug and a small window of opportunity in the original spec_fsync() code, and -stable also suffers from the spin-loop bug but since interrupts are enabled the spin resolves itself in a few milliseconds. |
