Revision 03cdadb04077b9311bbc67d98cc5401aff76482d authored by Dan Williams on 26 February 2016, 23:19:43 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 27 February 2016, 18:28:52 UTC
The recent *sync enabling discovered that we are inserting into the block_device pagecache counter to the expectations of the dirty data tracking for dax mappings. This can lead to data corruption. We want to support DAX for block devices eventually, but it requires wider changes to properly manage the pagecache. dump_stack+0x85/0xc2 dax_writeback_mapping_range+0x60/0xe0 blkdev_writepages+0x3f/0x50 do_writepages+0x21/0x30 __filemap_fdatawrite_range+0xc6/0x100 filemap_write_and_wait+0x4a/0xa0 set_blocksize+0x70/0xd0 sb_set_blocksize+0x1d/0x50 ext4_fill_super+0x75b/0x3360 mount_bdev+0x180/0x1b0 ext4_mount+0x15/0x20 mount_fs+0x38/0x170 Mark the support broken so its disabled by default, but otherwise still available for testing.
