From 902ccb86ed02eea5b81c2afb514c0a7d72f63de2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2024 09:46:33 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] dax: fix incorrect list of data cache aliasing architectures commit d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches") prevents DAX from building on architectures with virtually aliased dcache with: depends on !(ARM || MIPS || SPARC) This check is too broad (e.g. recent ARMv7 don't have virtually aliased dcaches), and also misses many other architectures with virtually aliased data cache. This is a regression introduced in the v4.0 Linux kernel where the dax mount option is removed for 32-bit ARMv7 boards which have no data cache aliasing, and therefore should work fine with FS_DAX. This was turned into the following check in alloc_dax() by a preparatory change: if (ops && (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM) || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MIPS) || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SPARC))) return NULL; Use cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() instead to figure out whether the environment has aliasing data caches.
