From 5a8948f8a32ba56c17b3fb75d318ac98157f3ba5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 31 May 2017 09:44:33 +0200 Subject: md: Make flush bios explicitely sync Commit b685d3d65ac7 "block: treat REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH as synchronous" removed REQ_SYNC flag from WRITE_{FUA|PREFLUSH|...} definitions. generic_make_request_checks() however strips REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH flags from a bio when the storage doesn't report volatile write cache and thus write effectively becomes asynchronous which can lead to performance regressions Fix the problem by making sure all bios which are synchronous are properly marked with REQ_SYNC.
