[PATCH V3 18/21] famfs_fuse: Add holder_operations for dax notify_failure()
From: John Groves
Date: Wed Jan 07 2026 - 17:02:09 EST
Memory errors are at least somewhat more likely on disaggregated memory
than on-board memory. This commit registers to be notified by fsdev_dax
in the event that a memory failure is detected.
When a file access resolves to a daxdev with memory errors, it will fail
with an appropriate error.
If a daxdev failed fs_dax_get(), we set dd->dax_err. If a daxdev called
our notify_failure(), set dd->error. When any of the above happens, set
(file)->error and stop allowing access.
In general, the recovery from memory errors is to unmount the file
system and re-initialize the memory, but there may be usable degraded
modes of operation - particularly in the future when famfs supports
file systems backed by more than one daxdev. In those cases,
accessing data that is on a working daxdev can still work.
For now, return errors for any file that has encountered a memory or dax
error.
