[Gluster-devel] Glusterfs Snapshot feature

[haiwei.xie-soulinfo]

hi, 
   We have completed gvol snapshot module based btrfs in 3.3.1 version,
in this design, we can't achieve application data consistency in snapshot, 
gluster lock & sync are not enough, so, any advice? 

      | clients (nfs/cifs) cache|  --> |glusterfs cache| --> |bricks fs cache|
      --can't trigger sync here--      --lock & sync--      ---    sync ----
