Subject: ext4: online defrag not supported with DAX
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=73f34a5e2ceddfca27c999c170620e6354aaf6d7;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

ext4: online defrag not supported with DAX

Online defrag operations for ext4 are hard coded to use the page cache.
See ext4_ioctl() -> ext4_move_extents() -> move_extent_per_page()

When combined with DAX I/O, which circumvents the page cache, this can
result in data corruption.  This was observed with xfstests ext4/307 and
ext4/308.

Fix this by only allowing online defrag for non-DAX files.
