Subject: [ANNOUNCE] work tree for untorn filesystem writes

Hi everyone,

Nobody else has stepped up to do this, so I've created a work branch for
the fs side of untorn writes:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfs-linux.git/log/?h=fs-atomic_2024-11-04

Can you all check this to make sure that I merged it correctly?  And
maybe go test this on your storage hardware? :)

If all goes well then I think the next step is to ask brauner very
nicely if he'd consider adding this to the vfs trees for 6.13.  If not
then I guess we can submit it ourselves, though we probably ought to ask
rothwell to add the branch to for-next asap.

PS: We're now past -rc6 so please reply quickly so that this doesn't
slip yet another cycle.

Catherine: John's on vacation all week, could you please send me the
latest versions of the xfs_io pwrite-atomic patch and the fstest for it?
