[PATCH v14 12/21] xfs: handle fsverity I/O in write/read path

Andrey Albershteyn <[email protected]> Mon, 3 Aug 2026 22:08:02 +0200
Newsgroups dev.linux.lists.fsverity,net.sourceforge.lists.linux-f2fs-devel,org.kernel.vger.linux-btrfs,org.kernel.vger.linux-ext4,org.kernel.vger.linux-fsdevel,org.kernel.vger.linux-xfs
Message-ID <[email protected]>
For write/writeback set IOMAP_F_FSVERITY flag telling iomap to not
update inode size and to not skip folios beyond EOF.

Initiate fsverity writeback with IOMAP_F_FSVERITY set to tell iomap
should not skip folio that is dirty beyond EOF.

In read path let iomap know that we are reading fsverity metadata. So,
treat holes in the tree as request to synthesize tree blocks and hole
after descriptor as end of the fsverity region.

Introduce a new inode flag meaning that merkle tree is being build on
the inode.
