Subject: zvol sync/flush regression in 2.2.7+
Package: zfs-dkms
X-Debbugs-Cc: f.gruenbich...@proxmox.com
Version: 2.2.7-1
Severity: grave
Forwarded: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/17131
Tags: upstream patch
hi!
zfs 2.2.7 and later do not honor all kinds of sync writes/flush requests
properly when issued on zvols. notably, using a zvol as backing device
for a Qemu virtual block device is affected, and ZFS treats all sync
writes issued by applications in the VM as async. this can lead to
inconsistencies or dataloss.
I bisected and found the upstream commit introducing the regression, and
proposed a fix upstream (see linked PR, which also contains a reproducer).
the packages in trixie and bookworm-backports should probably both be
updated, the fix is rather small and targeted ;)
thanks for your consideration!
Fabian
