[PATCH] multipath-tools: update mpp->force_readonly in ev_add_path

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

 



When NVMe disks are added to the system, no uevent containing the
DISK_RO property is generated. As a result, dm-* nodes backed by
readonly NVMe disks will not have their RO state set properly. The
result looks like this:

$ multipath -l
eui.00c92c091fd6564424a9376600011bd1 dm-3 NVME,Pure Storage FlashArray
size=1.0T features='0' hwhandler='0' wp=rw
|-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=0 status=active
| `- 0:2:2:72657 nvme0n2 259:4 active undef running
`-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=0 status=enabled
  `- 1:0:2:72657 nvme1n2 259:1 active undef running
$ cat /sys/block/dm-3/ro
0
$ cat /sys/block/nvme*n2/ro
1
1

This is not a problem for SCSI disks, since the kernel will emit change
uevents containing the DISK_RO property when the disk is added to the
system. See the following thread for my initial attempt to fix this
issue at the kernel level:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/Yib8GqCA5e3SQYty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#t

Fix the issue by picking up the path ro state from sysfs in ev_add_path,
setting the mpp->force_readonly accordingly, and changing
dm_addmap_create to be aware of mpp->force_readonly.
