In fat_file_aio_write:
retval = generic_file_aio_write(iocb, buf, count, pos);
if (retval > 0) {
inode->i_mtime = inode->i_ctime = CURRENT_TIME_SEC;
MSDOS_I(inode)->i_attrs |= ATTR_ARCH;
mark_inode_dirty(inode);
He says about the above FAT specific flag and timestamp. FAT needs to
add the ATTR_ARCH if data was modified, but current FAT is adding it
after generic_file_aio_write()/generic_file_writev(). (IIRC, some
other filesystems is also doing this.)
His patch seems good, although the some additional works was needed.
I applied the attached patch. Thanks, Hiroyuki-san.
Andrew, now fat_file_operations is the following. Is this OK?
struct file_operations fat_file_operations = {
.llseek = generic_file_llseek,
.read = do_sync_read,
.write = do_sync_write,
.readv = generic_file_readv,
.writev = generic_file_writev,
.aio_read = generic_file_aio_read,
.aio_write = generic_file_aio_write,
.mmap = generic_file_mmap,
.ioctl = fat_generic_ioctl,
.fsync = file_fsync,
.sendfile = generic_file_sendfile,
};

[PATCH] FAT: miss-sync issues on sync mount (miss-sync on write)
This patch fixes miss-sync issue on write() system call.
This updates inode attrs flags, mtime and ctime on every
comit_write call, due to locking.
