The align attribute applies an alignment constraint for namespace creation in a region. Whereas the 'align' attribute of a namespace applied alignment padding via an info block, the 'align' attribute applies alignment constraints to the free space allocation. The default for 'align' is the maximum known memremap_compat_align() across all archs (16MiB from PowerPC at time of writing) multiplied by the number of interleave ways if there is blk-aliasing. The minimum is PAGE_SIZE and allows for the creation of cross-arch incompatible namespaces, just as previous kernels allowed, but the expectation is cross-arch and mode-independent compatibility by default. The regression risk with this change is limited to cases that were dependent on the ability to create unaligned namespaces, *and* for some reason are unable to opt-out of aligned namespaces by writing to 'regionX/align'. If such a scenario arises the default can be flipped from opt-out to opt-in of compat-aligned namespace creation, but that is a last resort. The kernel will otherwise continue to support existing defined misaligned namespaces. Unfortunately this change needs to touch several parts of the implementation at once: - region/available_size: expand busy extents to current align - region/max_available_extent: expand busy extents to current align - namespace/size: trim free space to current align ...to keep the free space accounting conforming to the dynamic align setting.
