[sorry for the resend, the hotel wifi just broke down] Hi all, this tries to address the block for-next oops Chandan reported on XFS. I can't actually reproduce it unfortunately, but this series should sort it out by movign the fatal_signal_pending check out of all but the ioctl path. The write_zeroes and secure_erase path will need similar treatment eventually. Tested with blktests and the xfstests discard group for xfs only. Changes since v1: - open code the fatal signal logic in the ioctl handler - better bio-level helpers - drop the file system cleanups for now Diffstat: block/bio.c | 48 +++++++++++++++++++++++---- block/blk-lib.c | 90 +++++++++++++++------------------------------------- block/blk.h | 1 block/ioctl.c | 35 +++++++++++++++++--- include/linux/bio.h | 4 ++ 5 files changed, 102 insertions(+), 76 deletions(-)
