[PATCH v9 4/7] dm: enable synchronous dax

Pankaj Gupta
Tue, 14 May 2019 14:54:19 -0000

This patch sets dax device 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag if all the target
 devices of device mapper support synchrononous DAX. If device
 mapper consists of both synchronous and asynchronous dax devices,
 we don't set 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag.
