Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
If an inode has inline data it is currently prevented from using DAX by a check in ext4_set_inode_flags(). When the inode grows inline data via ext4_create_inline_data() or removes its inline data via ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock(), the value of S_DAX can change. Currently these changes are unsafe because we don't hold off page faults and I/O, write back dirty radix tree entries and invalidate all mappings. There are also issues with mm-level races when changing the value of S_DAX, as well as issues with the VM_MIXEDMAP flag: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-xfs/msg09859.html The unsafe transition of S_DAX can reliably cause data corruption, as shown by the following fstest: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9948381/ Fix this issue by preventing the DAX mount option from being used on filesystems that were created to support inline data. Inline data is an option given to mkfs.ext4.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
