hi, First thanks for your patchset. I'd like to know whether your patchset pass fstests? Thanks. Regards, Xiaoguang Wang
This patchset is attempt to add CoW support for fsdax, and take XFS, which has both reflink and fsdax feature, as an example. Changes from V1: - Factor some helper functions to simplify dax fault code - Introduce iomap_apply2() for dax_dedupe_file_range_compare() - Fix mistakes and other problems - Rebased on v5.11 One of the key mechanism need to be implemented in fsdax is CoW. Copy the data from srcmap before we actually write data to the destance iomap. And we just copy range in which data won't be changed. Another mechanism is range comparison. In page cache case, readpage() is used to load data on disk to page cache in order to be able to compare data. In fsdax case, readpage() does not work. So, we need another compare data with direct access support. With the two mechanism implemented in fsdax, we are able to make reflink and fsdax work together in XFS. Some of the patches are picked up from Goldwyn's patchset. I made some changes to adapt to this patchset.
