Subject: [PATCHv2 2/5] block: report direct io attributes through file_getattr
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 14:06:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710210646.3576365-3-kbusch@meta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260710210646.3576365-1-kbusch@meta.com>
From: Keith Busch <kbusch@kernel.org>
Add bdev_fill_dio_attr() to fill the file_attr direct io alignment
fields from a block device's queue limits, so filesystems can share the
derivation. Use it to report the attributes for block devices opened
directly.
