AHA!
The reason an FFS write resulted in an SMBFS read is that
you had mmap()'ed an SMBFS file, and then wrote a mapped
but-not-in-core page to the target FFS file.
Knowing that the code involved is in the paging path of the
SMBFS code is important.
What happens if you:
dd if=/smb/urchin/pub/bytes/8145 of=8145
? I expect that it works, no problem.
This localizes the problem to the VOP_GETPAGES that gets hit
in the SMBFS case.
