Subject: [PATCH v6 0/3] minimal DAX support for XFS realtime device

Darrick,
After reading the comments from you, Dave Chinner, and Dan, it looks like
the dyanmic S_DAX flag support won't be coming or not any time soon at the
least. Here are the the collection of patches so far to address yours and
Dave C's comments for minimal support. Please let me know what else I am
missing. Thanks!

v6:
- Removed excess () per Christoph comment.

v5:
- Removed sb parameter for bdev_dax_supported() since we only use it for
debug output per Christoph comment.

v4:
- Removed setting of error return in ext2 and ext4 per Ross's comments
- Rebased against 4.16-rc1 with updates

Subject: [PATCH v6 1/3] fs: allow per-device dax status checking for filesystems

From: Darrick J. Wong <[email protected]>

Remove __bdev_dax_supported and change to bdev_dax_supported that takes a
bdev parameter. This enables multi-device filesystems like xfs to check
that a dax device can work for the particular filesystem. Once that's
in place, actually fix all the parts of XFS where we need to be able to
distinguish between datadev and rtdev.

This patch fixes the problem where we screw up the dax support checking
in xfs if the datadev and rtdev have different dax capabilities.

Subject: [PATCH v6 3/3] xfs: reject removal of realtime flag when datadev doesn't support DAX

In a situation where the rt_dev is DAX and data_dev is not DAX, if the user
requests to remove the realtime flag via ioctl we can no longer support DAX
for that file. Dynamic changing of S_DAX on the inode is not supported due
to various complications in the existing implementation. Therefore until we
address the dynamic S_DAX change issues, we must disallow realtime flag
being removed.

What happens here if we have a non-rt file that we're trying to turn
into an rt file and the data dev supports dax but not the rt dev?

Changing the rt flag is only supported on files with no data blocks (no
extents, no delalloc blocks), so why can't we remove S_DAX from an empty
file? There aren't any memory mappings or page cache to get in the way,
correct?

Please fix the complications in the existing implementation that prevent
us from removing S_DAX rather than adding more XFS restrictions, or at
least tell me what's holding that up.

File size can be non-zero, so you can have DAX read-over-hole
mappings present. I simply don't think it's safe to remove/add S_DAX
flags via ioctls right now. If we have a DAX capable rtdev, then the
only way we should allow rtdev+dax to be used right now is via the
RT inherit bit on the dir that creates files in the rtdev right from
the start. i.e. we can't set/remove the RT inode flag on an inode
via ioctl if rtdev+dax is enabled until the whole dynamic S_DAX
inode flag thing is resolved.

Cheers,

Dave.

Could we deal with the restriction that the DAX flag can't change
(whether by user ioctl or by toggling the rt flag) unless the file size
is zero? That adds another way setting/clearing the realtime flag can
fail, but at least it'd be the same EINVAL.

I thought we still mmap a zero length file and get a page fault that
returns a zeroed page? Or does that segv?

I think it segfaults, but let's see...

$ rm -rf /opt/b ; xfs_io -f -c 'mmap -rw 0 1m' -c 'mread 512 20' /opt/b
Bus error
$ rm -rf /opt/b ; xfs_io -f -c 'mmap -rw 0 1m' -c 'mwrite 512 20' /opt/b
Bus error

Darrick,
So you want the change to be if the file size is 0 then we can modify
the RT bit, otherwise reject if DAX is involved?

The other way around -- reject any change to the DAX flag if the file
size is not zero, regardless of whether the user tried to change the DAX
flag directly or the change is happening because the user changed the RT
flag and the device dax support is different between the rt & data
devices.

We'll need more rigorous testing of this current theory that we can
change S_DAX without problems if the file size is zero, once this change
has been written.
