No. I said that reporting bugs on RedHat-specific kernels should be done to RedHat rather than to this list.
As for O_SYNC, AFAICS there are no bugs in the standard kernel. However if you are thinking that O_SYNC means that you can write simultaneously to the same file from 2 different clients, then the answer is "the NFS protocol won't allow you to do that". The *only* method of ensuring cache consistency in such a case is to use POSIX file locking.
Cheers, Trond - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
