[RFC PATCH 0/3] virtiofs,fuse: support per-file DAX

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patchset adds support of per-file DAX for virtiofs, which is
inspired by Ira Weiny's work on ext4[1] and xfs[2].

Currently virtiofs (in guest kernel) accepts per-file DAX flag from FUSE
server (in host). 

Currently it is not implemented yet to change per-file DAX flag inside
guest kernel, e.g., by chattr(1).

Any comment is welcome. :)
