The problem is: 1. write cached data to a file 2. read directly from the same file (via another fd) The 2nd operation may read stale data, i.e. the one that was in a file before the 1st op. Problem is in how fuse manages writeback. When direct op occurs the core kernel code calls filemap_write_and_wait to flush all the cached ops in flight. But fuse acks the writeback right after the ->writepages callback exits w/o waiting for the real write to happen. Thus the subsequent direct op proceeds while the real writeback is still in flight. This is a problem for backends that reorder operation. Fix this by making the fuse direct IO callback explicitly wait on the in-flight writeback to finish.
