For whole devices ->open is called for each open, but for partitions it is only called on the first open of a partition, e.g.: open("/dev/vdb", ...) open("/dev/vdb", ...) - 2 call to ->open open("/dev/vdb1", ...) open("/dev/vdb", ...) - 2 call to ->open open("/dev/vdb", ...) open("/dev/vdb", ...) - just open call to ->open This is problematic as various block drivers look at open flags and might not do all the required setup if the earlier open was with an odd flag like O_NDELAY or the magic 3 ioctl-only open mode.
