[RFC PATCH v5] mm, pmem, xfs: Introduce MF_MEM_REMOVE for unbind

From: ruansy.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxx
Date: Fri Jul 08 2022 - 01:43:44 EST


This patch is inspired by Dan's "mm, dax, pmem: Introduce
dev_pagemap_failure()"[1]. With the help of dax_holder and
->notify_failure() mechanism, the pmem driver is able to ask filesystem
(or mapped device) on it to unmap all files in use and notify processes
who are using those files.

Call trace:
trigger unbind
-> unbind_store()
-> ... (skip)
-> devres_release_all() # was pmem driver ->remove() in v1
-> kill_dax()
-> dax_holder_notify_failure(dax_dev, 0, U64_MAX, MF_MEM_REMOVE)
-> xfs_dax_notify_failure()

Introduce MF_MEM_REMOVE to let filesystem know this is a remove event.
So do not shutdown filesystem directly if something not supported, or if
failure range includes metadata area. Make sure all files and processes
are handled correctly.

==
Changes since v4:
1. sync_filesystem() at the beginning when MF_MEM_REMOVE
2. Rebased on next-20220706

Changes since v3:
1. Flush dirty files and logs when pmem is about to be removed.
2. Rebased on next-20220701

Changes since v2:
1. Rebased on next-20220615

Changes since v1:
1. Drop the needless change of moving {kill,put}_dax()
2. Rebased on '[PATCHSETS] v14 fsdax-rmap + v11 fsdax-reflink'[2]
