MAP_DIRECT is an mmap(2) flag with the following semantics:

  MAP_DIRECT
  When specified with MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, sets up a file lease with the
  same lifetime as the mapping. Unlike a typical F_RDLCK lease this lease
  is broken when a "lease breaker" attempts to write(2), change the block
  map (fallocate), or change the size of the file. Otherwise the mechanism
  of a lease break is identical to the typical lease break case where the
  lease needs to be removed (munmap) within the number of seconds
  specified by /proc/sys/fs/lease-break-time. If the lease holder fails to
  remove the lease in time the kernel will invalidate the mapping and
  force all future accesses to the mapping to trigger SIGBUS.

  In addition to lease break timeouts causing faults in the mapping to
  result in SIGBUS, other states of the file will trigger SIGBUS at fault
  time:

      * The file is not DAX capable
      * The file has reflinked (copy-on-write) blocks
      * The fault would trigger the filesystem to allocate blocks
      * The fault would trigger the filesystem to perform extent conversion

  In other words, MAP_DIRECT expects and enforces a fully allocated file
  where faults can be satisfied without modifying block map metadata.

  An unprivileged process may establish a MAP_DIRECT mapping on a file
  whose UID (owner) matches the filesystem UID of the  process. A process
  with the CAP_LEASE capability may establish a MAP_DIRECT mapping on
  arbitrary files

  ERRORS
  EACCES Beyond the typical mmap(2) conditions that trigger EACCES
  MAP_DIRECT also requires the permission to set a file lease.

  EOPNOTSUPP The filesystem explicitly does not support the flag

  SIGBUS Attempted to write a MAP_DIRECT mapping at a file offset that
         might require block-map updates, or the lease timed out and the
         kernel invalidated the mapping.

Namespacing (xfs_vma_is_direct) and whitespace damage.

Ok, I'll improve this.

And how do we get is_xfs_map_direct() set to true if we don't have a
DAX inode or the inode has shared extents?
So, this was my way of trying to satisfy the request you made here:

    https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/8/11/876

i.e. allow MAP_DIRECT on non-dax files to enable a use case of
freezing the block-map to examine which file extents are linked. If
you don't want to use MAP_DIRECT for this, we can move these checks to
mmap time.

And if it isn't a DAX inode? what is MAP_DIRECT supposed to do then?
In the non-DAX case it just takes the FL_LAYOUT file lease... although
we could also just have an fcntl for that purpose. The use case of
just freezing the block map does not need a mapping.

Urk. That's nasty. And why is it even necessary? Please explain why
this is necessary in the comment, because it's not at all obvious to
me...
This is related to your other observation about i_mapdcount and adding
an iomap_can_allocate() helper. I think I can clean both of these up
by using a call to break_layout(inode, false) and bailing in
->iomap_begin() if it returns EWOULDBLOCK. This would also fix the
current problem that allocating write-faults don't start the lease
break process.
