From b383a73f2b832491a2f9e6e8ada26aad53b5763d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ira Weiny Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 08:00:02 -0700 Subject: fs/ext4: Introduce DAX inode flag Add a flag ([EXT4|FS]_DAX_FL) to preserve FS_XFLAG_DAX in the ext4 inode. Set the flag to be user visible and changeable. Set the flag to be inherited. Allow applications to change the flag at any time except if it conflicts with the set of mutually exclusive flags (Currently VERITY, ENCRYPT, JOURNAL_DATA). Furthermore, restrict setting any of the exclusive flags if DAX is set. While conceptually possible, we do not allow setting EXT4_DAX_FL while at the same time clearing exclusion flags (or vice versa) for 2 reasons: 1) The DAX flag does not take effect immediately which introduces quite a bit of complexity 2) There is no clear use case for being this flexible Finally, on regular files, flag the inode to not be cached to facilitate changing S_DAX on the next creation of the inode.

In anticipation of that, an xattr INDEX was reserved[1]. The Hurd has now been brought into compliance[2] with that. This patch adds support for reading and writing such attributes from Linux; you can now do something like mkdir -p hurd-root/servers/socket touch hurd-root/servers/socket/1 setfattr --name=gnu.translator --value='"/hurd/pflocal\0"' \ hurd-root/servers/socket/1 getfattr --name=gnu.translator hurd-root/servers/socket/1 # file: 1 gnu.translator="/hurd/pflocal" to setup a pipe translator, which is being used to create[3] a vm-image for the Hurd from GNU Guix.
