SubjectRe: [NFS] NFSD over TCP: TCP broken?

Hello!

I do not think that you diagnosed the problem correctly.
nfsd used non blocking io and write to tcp is strictly atomic in this case.

However, it does not and it should not. Like concurrent write()
to any other file, the result is unpredictably interleaved data.
