Why does SCSI requires a special command for this? The actual question from others is why does NVMe not have a dedicated command for this, like: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nvme/20240129062035.GB19796@lst.de/ It's a data integrity feature, and we want to know if it works properly. > > Now we know what would be needed to bump the physical block size, it is > certainly a different feature, however I think it would be good to > evaluate that world too.

If you are using scsi_debug driver, then you can just pass the desired physblk_exp and sector_size args - they both default to 512B. Then you don't need bother with sd.c atomic stuff, which I think is what you want. > >>>> To me, O_ATOMIC would be required for buffered atomic writes IO, as we want >>>> a fixed-sized IO, so that would mean no mixing of atomic and non-atomic IO. >>> Would using the same min and max order for the inode work instead? >> Maybe, I would need to check further. > I'd be happy to help review too. Yeah, I'm starting to think that min and max inode would make life easier, as we don't need to deal with the scenario of an atomic write to a folio > atomic write size. Thanks, John
