From f044636d972246d451e06226cc1675d5da389762 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2015 16:09:04 -0500 Subject: NFS: Add attribute update barriers to nfs_setattr_update_inode() Ensure that other operations which raced with our setattr RPC call cannot revert the file attribute changes that were made on the server. To do so, we artificially bump the attribute generation counter on the inode so that all calls to nfs_fattr_init() that precede ours will be dropped. The motivation for the patch came from Chuck Lever's reports of readaheads racing with truncate operations and causing the file size to be reverted.
