From f0b2e563bc419df7c1b3d2f494574c25125f6aed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Moyer Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2015 16:15:32 -0400 Subject: blockdev: don't set S_DAX for misaligned partitions The dax code doesn't currently support misaligned partitions, so disable O_DIRECT via dax until such time as that support materializes.
