[PATCH 5.4 77/92] smb3: do not error on fsync when readonly

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 29 2021 - 13:29:48 EST


From: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 71e6864eacbef0b2645ca043cdfbac272cb6cea3 ]

Linux allows doing a flush/fsync on a file open for read-only,
but the protocol does not allow that. If the file passed in
on the flush is read-only try to find a writeable handle for
the same inode, if that is not possible skip sending the
fsync call to the server to avoid breaking the apps.
