Error description
The problem is seen only for an NFS file with size less than a page ...... When memory mapped IO is done using shared memory to NFS file and if the writes are less than a page but beyond the original size ,the file size never changes... The contents of file are also not complete. we can see only the content upto the original size.
Local fix
Problem summary
Memory mapped I/O using shared memory produces incomplete files in NFS
Problem conclusion
In functions nfs3_map and nfs3_map_lloff, after checking for invalid sid - INVLSID, if a shmat() file's (client) size offset is within a page, call vm_protectp() to set the protection key for the page
Temporary fix
