This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled xfs: conditionally allow FS_XFLAG_REALTIME changes if S_DAX is set to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: xfs-conditionally-allow-fs_xflag_realtime-changes-if.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6e35ee75134d50774464613eb3d40046774fda13 Author: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 18 11:17:21 2024 -0800 xfs: conditionally allow FS_XFLAG_REALTIME changes if S_DAX is set commit 8d16762047c627073955b7ed171a36addaf7b1ff upstream. If a file has the S_DAX flag (aka fsdax access mode) set, we cannot allow users to change the realtime flag unless the datadev and rtdev both support fsdax access modes. Even if there are no extents allocated to the file, the setattr thread could be racing with another thread that has already started down the write code paths.
