--- Comment #3 from Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org> ---
It would be somewhat interesting to see where the corruption occurs, on cli=
ent
or on server.  My intuition is that the problem happens on client, esp. bec=
ause
server does not have fspacectl() at all.

>From the code reading, nfs client does enough page flushing both in
nfs_deallocate() and in ncl_vinvalbuf().  At least, it is not obvious what
is missed and why msync(2) before deallocation helps. The sequence seems to
be, from nfs_deallocate() for NFSv4.2:
  ncl_vinvalbuf(V_SAVE)
    vm_object_page_clean(OBJPC_SYNC) <- sync pages synchronously
    vinvalbuf(V_SAVE)
      vm_object_page_remove(OBJPR_CLEANONLY) <- only remove clean pages
    vnode_pager_purge_range()
      vm_object_page_remove(0)
    nfsrpc_deallocate()

It might be that a clean page somehow avoided being removed from the queue,
but as I said, I do not see how this could occur.  Or it might be the handl=
ing
of the partially deallocated pages is somewhat wrong.
