[PATCH v2 00/14] block atomic writes for XFS

[John Garry <john.g.garry@oracle.com>]

This series expands atomic write support to filesystems, specifically
XFS. Extent alignment is based on new feature forcealign (again), and we
do not rely on XFS rtvol extent alignment this time.

Flag FS_XFLAG_ATOMICWRITES is added as an enabling flag for atomic writes.

A FS can be formatted for atomic writes as follows:
mkfs.xfs -i forcealign=1 -d extsize=16384 -d atomic-writes=1  /dev/sda

atomic-writes=1 just enables atomic writes in the SB, but does not auto-
enable atomic writes for each file. There are no mkfs checks yet whether
the underlying HW actually supports atomic writes for at least 16K, but
this will be added.

Support can be enabled through xfs_io command:
$xfs_io -c "lsattr -v" filename
[extsize, force-align]
$xfs_io -c "extsize" filename
[16384] filename
$xfs_io -c "chattr +W" filename
$xfs_io -c "lsattr -v" filename
[extsize, force-align, atomic-writes] filename
$xfs_io -c statx filename
...
stat.stx_atomic_write_unit_min = 4096
stat.stx_atomic_write_unit_max = 16384
stat.stx_atomic_write_segments_max = 1
...

Note that, apart from "Do not free EOF blocks for forcealign" change, XFS
forcealign support has not been updated or comments addressed since
originally sent in:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20230929102726.2985188-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com/

I was waiting until this series was progressed for updating forcealign:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20231004001943.349265-1-david@fromorbit.com/
I don't know the status of that series.

Baseline is following series (which is based on v6.8-rc5):
