[RFC 5/8] ext4: Adds direct-io atomic writes checks
From: Ritesh Harjani (IBM)
Date: Sat Mar 02 2024 - 02:44:30 EST
This patch adds ext4 specific checks for supporting atomic writes
using fsawu (filesystem atomic write unit). We can enable this support
with either -
1. bigalloc on a 4k pagesize system or
2. bs < ps system with -b <BS>
3. filesystems with LBS (large block size) support (future)
Let's use generic_atomic_write_valid() helper for alignment
restrictions checking.
