Sync syscall to DAX file needs to flush processor cache, but it
currently does not flush to existing DAX files. This is because
'ext4_da_aops' is set to address_space_operations of existing DAX
files, instead of 'ext4_dax_aops', since S_DAX flag is set after
ext4_set_aops() in the open path.
New file
--------
lookup_open
ext4_create
__ext4_new_inode
ext4_set_inode_flags // Set S_DAX flag
ext4_set_aops // Set aops to ext4_dax_aops
Existing file
-------------
lookup_open
ext4_lookup
ext4_iget
ext4_set_aops // Set aops to ext4_da_aops
ext4_set_inode_flags // Set S_DAX flag
Change ext4_iget() to initialize i_flags before ext4_set_aops().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
