From 87ed5eb44ad9338b1617a0e78dea81d681325298 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2011 13:42:01 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Don't use DATA_SYNC writes If we're writing back data, and the FLUSH_STABLE flag is set, then we always want to use NFS_FILE_SYNC, since we're always in a situation where we're doing page reclaim, and so we want to free up the page as quickly as possible. If we're in the FLUSH_COND_STABLE case, then we either want to use another unstable write (if we have to do a commit anyway) or again, we want to use NFS_FILE_SYNC because we know that we have no more pages to write out.
