-Executing an fsync() on a file-descriptor of a partition flushes the
-caches for that partition by calling blkdev_issue_flush(). However, it
-seems that reading data through the parent device will still return the
-old cached data.
-
-The cache for the block-device is not synced if the block-device is kept
-open (due to a mounted partition, for example). Only when all users for
-the disk have exited, the cache for the disk is made consistent again.
-
-Calling invalidate_bdev() on the parent block-device in case
-blkdev_fsync() was called for a partition, fixes this.
-
-The problem can be worked around by forcing the caches to be flushed
-with either
- # blockdev --flushbufs ${dev_disk}
-or
- # echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

----
-v2:
-- Do not call invalidate_bdev() from blkdev_issue_flush() and prevent
- performance degration with journalled filesystems.
-
- Suggested was to call invalidate_bdev() in fsync_bdev(), but this is
- not in the call-path of mkfs.ext3 and similar tools. Hence the issue
- persists.
-
-- Correct phrasing a little, changing ioctl-BLKFLSBUF is not required.
-
-- This issue also occurs when doing an ioctl-BLKFLSBUF on a partition.
- Reading the whole disk will still return cached data. If this is an
- issue, it will need a seperate patch.
