[PATCH RFC 0/5] device mapper atomic write support

From: John Garry
Date: Mon Jan 06 2025 - 07:42:09 EST


This series introduces initial device mapper atomic write support.

Since we already support stacking atomic writes limits, it's quite
straightforward to support.

Only dm-linear is supported for now, but other personalities could
be supported.

Patch #1 is a proper fix, but the rest of the series is RFC - this is
because I have not fully tested and we are close to the end of this
development cycle.

Based on v6.13-rc6

John Garry (5):
block: Ensure start sector is aligned for stacking atomic writes
block: Change blk_stack_atomic_writes_limits() unit_min check
dm-table: Atomic writes support
dm: Ensure cloned bio is same length for atomic write
dm-linear: Enable atomic writes
