[PATCH v4 3/3] dm: prevent DAX mounts if not supported

From: Ross Zwisler
Date: Tue Jun 26 2018 - 15:01:40 EST


Currently device_supports_dax() just checks to see if the QUEUE_FLAG_DAX
flag is set on the device's request queue to decide whether or not the
device supports filesystem DAX. Really we should be using
bdev_dax_supported() like filesystems do at mount time. This performs
other tests like checking to make sure the dax_direct_access() path works.

Conditionally set QUEUE_FLAG_DAX on the DM device's request queue based on
whether all underlying devices support DAX. Now that bdev_dax_supported()
explicitly checks for this flag, this will ensure that filesystems built
upon DM devices will only be able to mount with DAX if all underlying
devices also support DAX.
