Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 8/8] dax: Fix incorrect list of dcache aliasing architectures
Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2024 11:52:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240130165255.212591-9-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240130165255.212591-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

commit d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches")
prevents DAX from building on architectures with virtually aliased
dcache with:

  depends on !(ARM || MIPS || SPARC)

This check is too broad (e.g. recent ARMv7 don't have virtually aliased
dcaches), and also misses many other architectures with virtually
aliased dcache.

This is a regression introduced in the v5.13 Linux kernel where the
dax mount option is removed for 32-bit ARMv7 boards which have no dcache
aliasing, and therefore should work fine with FS_DAX.

This was turned into the following implementation of dax_is_supported()
by a preparatory change:

        return !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM) &&
               !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MIPS) &&
               !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SPARC);

Use dcache_is_aliasing() instead to figure out whether the environment
has aliasing dcaches.
