The root of the issue here is the fact that DAX was never designed to handle virtually aliasing data caches (VIVT and VIPT with aliasing data cache). It touches the pages through their linear mapping, which is not consistent with the userspace mappings with virtually aliasing data caches. This patch series introduces cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() with the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_CPU_CACHE_ALIASING and implements it for all architectures. The implementation of cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is either evaluated to a constant at compile-time or a runtime check, which is what is needed on ARM. With this we can basically narrow down the list of architectures which are unsupported by DAX to those which are really affected. Testing done so far: - Compile allyesconfig on x86-64, - Compile allyesconfig on x86-64, with FS_DAX=n. - Compile allyesconfig on x86-64, with DAX=n. - Boot test after modifying alloc_dax() to force returning -EOPNOTSUPP even on x86-64, thus simulating the behavior expected on an architecture with data cache aliasing. There are many more axes to test however. I would welcome Tested-by for: - affected architectures, - affected drivers, - affected filesytems. Thanks, Mathieu Changes since v3: - Fix a leak on dax_add_host() failure in nvdimm/pmem. - Split the series into a bissectable sequence of changes. - Ensure that device-dax use-cases still works on data cache aliasing architectures. Changes since v2: - Move DAX supported runtime check to alloc_dax(), - Modify DM to handle alloc_dax() error as non-fatal, - Remove all filesystem modifications, since the check is now done by alloc_dax(), - rename "dcache" and "cache" to "cpu dcache" and "cpu cache" to eliminate confusion with VFS terminology. Changes since v1: - The order of the series was completely changed based on the feedback received on v1, - cache_is_aliasing() is renamed to dcache_is_aliasing(), - ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING_DYNAMIC is gone, - dcache_is_aliasing() vs ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING relationship is simplified, - the dax_is_supported() check was moved to its rightful place in all filesystems.
