command failing at iSCSI disconnect

I'm using the latest linus git tree. This is in fileio mode with IOMode=wb. It seems that if I do I/O and then immediately disconnect then the cache sync commands fail. Is this expected behavior or should the connection wait till all existing commands has been flushed before logout? Thanks! [EMAIL
