[PATCH 0/5] DAX fsync/msync fixes
From: Ross Zwisler
Date: Wed Jan 20 2016 - 22:37:09 EST
This series fixes several issues in v8 of my "DAX fsync/msync support"
patch series [1]. Thank you to Jan Kara for his excellent review.
Jan pointed out that we probably have an issue with the way hole punch
interacts with the fsync/msync code. This is the item that I'll work on
next, but I wanted to send this series out now as I think it will be
independent of the hole punch fixes.
This set applies cleanly on top of v8 of my "DAX fsync/msync support" set,
which is in -mm and -next. That set has not yet been merged for v4.5
which is why the my work tree is still based on -next:
