[PATCH v2 4/7] 11-dm-mpath.rules: don't save DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG_OLD

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

 



The current rules overwrite DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG and save its
value in DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG_OLD if MPATH_DEVICE_READY changes
from 1 to 0, and restore DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG from
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG_OLD when MPATH_DEVICE_READY changes back from
0 to 1.

This is wrong for multiple reasons. For "spurious" events, 10-dm.rules will
read DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG from the udev db and obtain the value
saved by 11-dm-mpath.rules rather than it's own saved value, which confuses
the logic in 10-dm.rules. 10-dm.rules sets the flag if either DISK_RO==1 or
DM_SUSPENDED==1, and never clears it (it can only be cleared by a new genuine
libdm event that doesn't have DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG set, while the
device is not suspended). lvm commands may set the flag, too, but AFAICS this
is only done for certain types of logical volumes, not for multipath maps.

If a previously suspended device is resumed, DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG
would be cleared, and it would be wrong for 11-dm-mpath.rules to overwrite it
with a previuosly saved value. Likewise, if a uevent arrives for a suspended
map, and MPATH_DEVICE_READY happens to switch from 0 to 1, it would be wrong
to clear DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG by setting it to a previously saved
value.

We need to set DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG=1 to prevent follow-up rules
from attempting I/O on the device. But don't try to save and restore
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG between uevents. Rather, reset
DM_UDEV_DISABLE_OTHER_RULES_FLAG to the value we got from 10-dm.rules in a
late rule. I chose "z0" for this rule's prefix to make sure it needs to run
very late (after 99-systemd.rules, for example) while still allowing some
reasonable space after it.
