Better handle missing O_DIRECT on Illumos #7
Description
block/raw-posix.c has this code:
#ifndef O_DIRECT
#define O_DIRECT O_DSYNC
#endif
From what I can tell, that would turn cache=none behavior into that of cache=writethrough. mjt in #kvm suggested an alternative worth considering:
(14:43:29) mjt: directio(fd,DIRECTIO_ON) -- maybe worth to add on solaris instead of O_DIRECT
