[I'm not on this list, so please Cc any replies to me..]

I've been integrating Rick Macklem's NFSv3 code (from Lite2) into
NetBSD-current. After passing through several tests in several configurations,
I thought I was mostly done with it. However, I decided to scan the
FreeBSD mailing lists for any problems that you folks might have had
integrating it, since you have done that already a while ago.

I noticed a message from Bruce Evans, dated August 2nd I think, in which
he wrote:

> 3. Making of vnode_if.[ch] for the kernel on the client with /usr NFSv3-
>    mounted gives corrupted files (with small pieces missing or something like
>    that).

So I tried it and, sure enough, it failed. It only happens when v3 is used,
without NQNFS extensions. It seems that the last buffer of the files is not
written to the server, creating truncated files.

It isn't one of the 2 bugs reported in the patches that Rick put up for ftp,
I checked that.

My question is: did you guys already fix this one (I guess so, since it
was reported 4 months ago), and how did you fix it? 

I just thought I'd ask before going off and hunting it down myself, there's
no to reinvent the wheel after all.

Thanks a lot in advance,

- Frank
