From fde872682e175743e0c3ef939c89e3c6008a1529 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2018 14:07:58 -0500 Subject: ext4: force inode writes when nfsd calls commit_metadata() Some time back, nfsd switched from calling vfs_fsync() to using a new commit_metadata() hook in export_operations(). If the file system did not provide a commit_metadata() hook, it fell back to using sync_inode_metadata(). Unfortunately doesn't work on all file systems. In particular, it doesn't work on ext4 due to how the inode gets journalled --- the VFS writeback code will not always call ext4_write_inode(). So we need to provide our own ext4_nfs_commit_metdata() method which calls ext4_write_inode() directly.
