> [ 7190.693567] CIFS does not yet support partial page writes on O_WRONLY files I get that one even without "heavy stressing" - just doing a CIFS mount of a share from our NetApp and trying to copy a file onto it will trigger this variant. 'cat /etc/motd >> /mnt/server/my_dir/foo' triggers it. (changing the shell redirect to '1<>/mnt/server/my_dir/foo' solves THIS one, and creates the second flavor: > [ 7190.693600] CIFS VFS: close with pending writes Happens every time you close a file after writing anything other than an exact multiple of 4K. Some quick testing indicates that this works properly under -rc5-mm2 (in fact, I didn't report it against -mm1 because when I discovered it the other day, I already knew -mm2 was out...)
