[PATCH v2 0/5] DAX fsync/msync fixes

Show all headers | View raw

Changes from v1:
 - Fixed a macro collision for "PMD_INDEX" reported by 0-day for the "tile"
   architecture:

  config: tile-allyesconfig (attached as .config)
  reproduce:
  	wget https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/lkp-tests.git/plain/sbin/make.cross -O ~/bin/make.cross
          chmod +x ~/bin/make.cross
         	# save the attached .config to linux build tree
          make.cross ARCH=tile
  
  All warnings (new ones prefixed by >>):
  
  >> fs/dax.c:330:0: warning: "PMD_INDEX" redefined [enabled by default]
     arch/tile/include/asm/pgtable_64.h:35:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
  >> fs/dax.c:330:0: warning: "PMD_INDEX" redefined [enabled by default]
     arch/tile/include/asm/pgtable_64.h:35:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition

Thanks, 0-day!

This set applies cleanly on top of v8 of my "DAX fsync/msync support" set,
which is in -mm and -next.  That set has not yet been merged for v4.5
which is why the my work tree is still based on -next:

Original summary:

This series fixes several issues in v8 of my "DAX fsync/msync support"
patch series [1].  Thank you to Jan Kara for his excellent review.

Jan pointed out that we probably have an issue with the way hole punch
interacts with the fsync/msync code.  This is the item that I'll work on
next, but I wanted to send this series out now as I think it will be
independent of the hole punch fixes.
