Having > virtio_pmem_host_cache_enabled() check in filesystem code just looks like > filesystem sniffing into details is should not care about... Maybe just > naming this (or having a wrapper) dax_dev_map_sync_supported()? Thanks for the feedback. Just wanted to avoid 'dax' in function name just to differentiate this with real dax. But yes can add a wrapper: dax_dev_map_sync_supported() Thanks, Pankaj _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
