Description Pranith Kumar K 2017-08-29 05:46:43 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1485962 +++

Description of problem:
    tcmu-runner is not going to open block with O_SYNC anymore
    so writes have a chance of getting cached in write-behind
    when that happens, there is a chance that on failover some
    data could be stuck in cache and be lost. So strict-o-direct should be on
