linux-2.4.21-mmap-updates.patch lines 193/4 seem to be the problem. Upper limit test on end >= vma->vm_end fails when you sync the whole memory mapped area, but returns error (==0 ==success) so that you have no idea that it hasn't sync'ed anything at all. The patch to fix this problem was sent to rhkernel-list and has recieved the nexessary ACKs for inclusion in RHEL3-U5. Larry Woodman A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U5 patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-27.16.EL).
