[PATCH] dm-io: reject unsupported DISCARD/WRITE SAME requests with EOPNOTSUPP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I created a dm-raid1 device backed by a device that supports DISCARD
and another device that does NOT support DISCARD with the following
dm configuration:

# echo '0 2048 mirror core 1 512 2 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0' | dmsetup create moo
# lsblk -D
NAME         DISC-ALN DISC-GRAN DISC-MAX DISC-ZERO
sda                 0        4K       1G         0
`-moo (dm-0)        0        4K       1G         0
sdb                 0        0B       0B         0
`-moo (dm-0)        0        4K       1G         0

Notice that the mirror device /dev/mapper/moo advertises DISCARD
support even though one of the mirror halves doesn't.

If I issue a DISCARD request (via fstrim, mount -o discard, or ioctl
BLKDISCARD) through the mirror, kmirrord gets stuck in an infinite
loop in do_region() when it tries to issue a DISCARD request to sdb.
The problem is that when we call do_region() against sdb, num_sectors
is set to zero because q->limits.max_discard_sectors is zero.
Therefore, "remaining" never decreases and the loop never terminates.

Before entering the loop, check for the combination of REQ_DISCARD and
no discard and return -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid hanging up the mirror
device.  Fix the same problem with WRITE_DISCARD while we're at it.

This bug was found by the unfortunate coincidence of pvmove and a
discard operation in the RHEL 6.5 kernel; 3.19 is also affected.
