[pve-devel] [PATCH manager 1/3] ui: virtiofs edit: drop writeback checkbox

[Fiona Ebner]

VirtIO-fs using writeback cache seems very broken at the moment. If a
guest accesses a file (even just using 'touch'), that the host is
currently writing, the guest can permanently end up with a truncated
version of that file. Even subsequent operations like moving the file,
will not result in the correct file being visible, but just rename the
truncated one.
