From 2f3b6e61f692bade441230dd25c1c0f101bd2eef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin Wolf Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2025 23:16:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block/io: Ignore FUA with cache.no-flush=on For block drivers that don't advertise FUA support, we already call bdrv_co_flush(), which considers BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH. However, drivers that do support FUA still see the FUA flag with BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH and get the associated performance penalty that cache.no-flush=on was supposed to avoid. Clear FUA for write requests if BDRV_O_NO_FLUSH is set.
