ceph: do not execute direct write in parallel if O_APPEND is specified
In O_APPEND & O_DIRECT mode, the data from different writers will be possibly overlapping each other since they take the shared lock. For example, both Writer1 and Writer2 are in O_APPEND and O_DIRECT mode: Writer1 Writer2 shared_lock() shared_lock() getattr(CAP_SIZE) getattr(CAP_SIZE) iocb->ki_pos = EOF iocb->ki_pos = EOF write(data1) write(data2) shared_unlock() shared_unlock() The data2 will overlap the data1 from the same file offset, the old EOF. Switch to exclusive lock instead when O_APPEND is specified. Signed-off-by: Xiubo Li <xiubli@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@gmail.com>
