I never said that it was better :) I even said: "I don't see any obvious advantage of keeping them the same" :) Just that it would follow the existing pattern of keeping UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_* in sync with REQ_OP_ZONE_*. > > I'd rather use 14 to fill the hole, meantime the two ZONE_RESET OPs > can be kept together. Ok, but then, considering that UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_* is not part of any official kernel release, and that the highest UBLK_IO_OP is currently defined as 5: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/include/uapi/linux/ublk_cmd.h?h=v6.5-rc5#n237 why not define: +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_OPEN 6 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_CLOSE 7 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_FINISH 8 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_APPEND 9 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_RESET 10 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL 11 instead of, like it currently is in linux-block/for-next (this patch included): +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_OPEN 10 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_CLOSE 11 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_FINISH 12 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_APPEND 13 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL 14 +#define UBLK_IO_OP_ZONE_RESET 15 Because, even after this patch, you would still have a hole between UBLK_IO_OP_ value 5 and 10.
