When calling into _xfs_log_force{,_lsn}() with a pointer
to log_flushed variable, log_flushed will be set to 1 if:
1. xlog_sync() is called to flush the active log buffer
AND/OR
2. xlog_wait() is called to wait on a syncing log buffers
xfs_file_fsync() checks the value of log_flushed after
_xfs_log_force_lsn() call to optimize away an explicit
PREFLUSH request to the data block device after writing
out all the file's pages to disk.
This optimization is incorrect in the following sequence of events:
Task A Task B
-------------------------------------------------------
xfs_file_fsync()
_xfs_log_force_lsn()
xlog_sync()
[submit PREFLUSH]
xfs_file_fsync()
file_write_and_wait_range()
[submit WRITE X]
[endio WRITE X]
_xfs_log_force_lsn()
xlog_wait()
[endio PREFLUSH]
The write X is not guarantied to be on persistent storage
when PREFLUSH request in completed, because write A was submitted
after the PREFLUSH request, but xfs_file_fsync() of task A will
be notified of log_flushed=1 and will skip explicit flush.
If the system crashes after fsync of task A, write X may not be
present on disk after reboot.
This bug was discovered and demonstrated using Josef Bacik's
dm-log-writes target, which can be used to record block io operations
and then replay a subset of these operations onto the target device.
The test goes something like this:
- Use fsx to execute ops of a file and record ops on log device
- Every now and then fsync the file, store md5 of file and mark
the location in the log
- Then replay log onto device for each mark, mount fs and compare
md5 of file to stored value

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
