This series takes the approach of adding a new "atomic" flag to each of pwritev2() and iocb->ki_flags - RWF_ATOMIC and IOCB_ATOMIC, respectively. When set, these indicate that we want the write issued "atomically". Only direct IO is supported and for block devices here. For this, atomic write HW is required, like SCSI ATOMIC WRITE (16). XFS FS support has previously been posted at: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20240607143919.2622319-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com/T/#t Updated man pages have been posted at: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240124112731.28579-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com/T/#m520dca97a9748de352b5a723d3155a4bb1e46456 The goal here is to provide an interface that allows applications use application-specific block sizes larger than logical block size reported by the storage device or larger than filesystem block size as reported by stat(). With this new interface, application blocks will never be torn or fractured when written. For a power fail, for each individual application block, all or none of the data to be written. A racing atomic write and read will mean that the read sees all the old data or all the new data, but never a mix of old and new. Three new fields are added to struct statx - atomic_write_unit_min, atomic_write_unit_max, and atomic_write_segments_max. For each atomic individual write, the total length of a write must be a between atomic_write_unit_min and atomic_write_unit_max, inclusive, and a power-of-2. The write must also be at a natural offset in the file wrt the write length. For pwritev2, iovcnt is limited by atomic_write_segments_max. There has been some discussion on untorn buffered writes support at: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20240601093325.GC247052@mit.edu/T/#t That conversation continues. SCSI sd.c and scsi_debug and NVMe kernel support is added.
