Ts'o" <tytso@....edu>, Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>, linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org, linux-xfs@...r.kernel.org, linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [RFC PATCH V2 05/12] fs: remove unneeded IS_DAX() check From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@...el.com> The IS_DAX() check in io_is_direct() causes a race between changing the DAX mode and creating the iocb flags. Remove the check because DAX now emulates the page cache API and therefore it does not matter if the file mode is DAX or not when the iocb flags are created.
