For some research I am doing, I need to be able to clear cached file
data (both dirty and clean) from the buffer and page caches. I've poked
around the caches and tried a few things, but failed. Can anyone give
me some suggestions on the proper approach to take or some pointers to
where to start looking? I am currently using kernel version 2.3.32.

Thanks,
honus
