Pull misc DAX updates from Vishal Verma: "DAX error handling for 4.7 - Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on any device. This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver. - The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1. Other misc changes: - When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition is page aligned. This is a requirement for DAX, and previously, we allowed such unaligned mounts to succeed, but subsequent reads/writes would fail. - Misc/cleanup fixes from Jan that remove unused code from DAX related to zeroing, writeback, and some size checks" * tag 'dax-misc-for-4.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: dax: fix a comment in dax_zero_page_range and dax_truncate_page dax: for truncate/hole-punch, do zeroing through the driver if possible dax: export a low-level __dax_zero_page_range helper dax: use sb_issue_zerout instead of calling dax_clear_sectors dax: enable dax in the presence of known media errors (badblocks) dax: fallback from pmd to pte on error block: Update blkdev_dax_capable() for consistency xfs: Add alignment check for DAX mount ext2: Add alignment check for DAX mount ext4: Add alignment check for DAX mount block: Add bdev_dax_supported() for dax mount checks block: Add vfs_msg() interface dax: Remove redundant inode size checks dax: Remove pointless writeback from dax_do_io() dax: Remove zeroing from dax_io() dax: Remove dead zeroing code from fault handlers ext2: Avoid DAX zeroing to corrupt data ext2: Fix block zeroing in ext2_get_blocks() for DAX dax: Remove complete_unwritten argument DAX: move RADIX_DAX_ definitions to dax.c

dax: use sb_issue_zerout instead of calling dax_clear_sectors

2016-05-18T18:16:56Z

dax_clear_sectors() cannot handle poisoned blocks. These must be zeroed using the BIO interface instead. Convert ext2 and XFS to use only sb_issue_zerout().

ext2: Add alignment check for DAX mount

2016-05-17T06:44:12Z

When a partition is not aligned by 4KB, mount -o dax succeeds, but any read/write access to the filesystem fails, except for metadata update. Call bdev_dax_supported() to perform proper precondition checks which includes this partition alignment check.

ext2: Avoid DAX zeroing to corrupt data

2016-05-17T06:44:07Z

Currently ext2 zeroes any data blocks allocated for DAX inode however it still returns them as BH_New. Thus DAX code zeroes them again in dax_insert_mapping() which can possibly overwrite the data that has been already stored to those blocks by a racing dax_io(). Avoid marking pre-zeroed buffers as new. Reviewed-by: Ross Zwisler Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Vishal Verma

ext2: Fix block zeroing in ext2_get_blocks() for DAX

2016-05-17T06:41:24Z

When zeroing allocated blocks for DAX, we accidentally zeroed only the first allocated block instead of all of them. So far this problem is hidden by the fact that page faults always need only a single block and DAX write code zeroes blocks again. But the zeroing in DAX code is racy and needs to be removed so fix the zeroing in ext2 to zero all allocated blocks. Reported-by: Ross Zwisler Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Vishal Verma

dax: Remove complete_unwritten argument

2016-05-17T00:11:51Z

Fault handlers currently take complete_unwritten argument to convert unwritten extents after PTEs are updated. However no filesystem uses this anymore as the code is racy. Remove the unused argument. Reviewed-by: Ross Zwisler Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Vishal Verma
