Hello,
write() from cifs kernel driver blocks when disconnecting the cifs server. The
blocking call didn't return after 30 minutes. Client and server are connected
via a switch and server's LAN cable is unplugged during the write call. I use
kernel 3.11.8 and mounted without "hard" option.
Is there a possibility for an non-blocking write() without using O_SYNC or
"directio" mount option?
Way to reproduce the scenario: Below is a sample program which calls write() in
a loop. The error messages appear when unplugging the cable during this loop.
Kind regards,
Hagen
