Historically we have waited for filesystem specific heuristics to
attempt to guess when a block device is gone. Sometimes this works, but
in other cases the system can hang waiting for the fs to trigger its
shutdown protocol.
The initial motivation for this investigation was to prevent DAX
mappings (direct mmap access to persistent memory) from leaking past the
lifetime of the hosting block device. However, Dave points out that
these shutdown operations are needed in other scenarios. Quoting Dave:
For example, if we detect a free space corruption during allocation,
it is not safe to trust *any active mapping* because we can't trust
that we having handed out the same block to multiple owners. Hence
on such a filesystem shutdown, we have to prevent any new DAX
mapping from occurring and invalidate all existing mappings as we
cannot allow userspace to modify any data or metadata until we've
resolved the corruption situation.
