Subject: [PATCH V8 7/8] dax: Add fs_dax_get() func to prepare dax for fs-dax usage
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2026 20:30:22 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319013022.4531-1-john@groves.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260318202737.4344.dax@groves.net>
The fs_dax_get() function should be called by fs-dax file systems after
opening a fsdev dax device. This adds holder_operations, which provides
a memory failure callback path and effects exclusivity between callers
of fs_dax_get().
fs_dax_get() is specific to fsdev_dax, so it checks the driver type
(which required touching bus.[ch]). fs_dax_get() fails if fsdev_dax is
not bound to the memory.
This function serves the same role as fs_dax_get_by_bdev(), which dax
file systems call after opening the pmem block device.
This can't be located in fsdev.c because struct dax_device is opaque
there.
This will be called by fs/fuse/famfs.c in a subsequent commit.
