The BLKRRPART ioctl used to report errors such as EIO before we changed the blkdev_reread_part() logic. Lets add a flag and capture the errors returned by bdev_disk_changed() when the flag is set. Setting this flag for the BLKRRPART path when we want the errors to be reported when rereading partitions on the disk.

Fixes: 4601b4b130de ("block: reopen the device in blkdev_reread_part") Reported-by: Saranya Muruganandam <saranyamohan@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Saranya Muruganandam <saranyamohan@xxxxxxxxxx> Change-Id: Idf3d97390ed78061556f8468d10d6cab24ae20b1 --- block/bdev.c | 29 +++++++++++++++++++---------- block/ioctl.c | 3 ++- include/linux/blkdev.h | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/block/bdev.c b/block/bdev.c index 7a5f611c3d2e3..42940bced33bb 100644 --- a/block/bdev.c +++ b/block/bdev.c @@ -652,6 +652,14 @@ static void blkdev_flush_mapping(struct block_device *bdev) bdev_write_inode(bdev); } +static void blkdev_put_whole(struct block_device *bdev) +{ + if (atomic_dec_and_test(&bdev->bd_openers)) + blkdev_flush_mapping(bdev); + if (bdev->bd_disk->fops->release) + bdev->bd_disk->fops->release(bdev->bd_disk); +} + static int blkdev_get_whole(struct block_device *bdev, blk_mode_t mode) { struct gendisk *disk = bdev->bd_disk; @@ -670,20 +678,21 @@ static int blkdev_get_whole(struct block_device *bdev, blk_mode_t mode) if (!atomic_read(&bdev->bd_openers)) set_init_blocksize(bdev); - if (test_bit(GD_NEED_PART_SCAN, &disk->state)) - bdev_disk_changed(disk, false); atomic_inc(&bdev->bd_openers); + if (test_bit(GD_NEED_PART_SCAN, &disk->state)) { + /* + * Only return scanning errors if we are called from conexts + * that explicitly want them, e.g. the BLKRRPART ioctl. + */ + ret = bdev_disk_changed(disk, false); + if (ret && (mode & BLK_OPEN_STRICT_SCAN)) { + blkdev_put_whole(bdev); + return ret; + } + } return 0; } -static void blkdev_put_whole(struct block_device *bdev) -{ - if (atomic_dec_and_test(&bdev->bd_openers)) - blkdev_flush_mapping(bdev); - if (bdev->bd_disk->fops->release) - bdev->bd_disk->fops->release(bdev->bd_disk); -} - static int blkdev_get_part(struct block_device *part, blk_mode_t mode) { struct gendisk *disk = part->bd_disk; diff --git a/block/ioctl.c b/block/ioctl.c index 0c76137adcaaa..128f503828cee 100644 --- a/block/ioctl.c +++ b/block/ioctl.c @@ -562,7 +562,8 @@ static int blkdev_common_ioctl(struct block_device *bdev, blk_mode_t mode, return -EACCES; if (bdev_is_partition(bdev)) return -EINVAL; - return disk_scan_partitions(bdev->bd_disk, mode); + return disk_scan_partitions(bdev->bd_disk, + mode | BLK_OPEN_STRICT_SCAN); case BLKTRACESTART: case BLKTRACESTOP: case BLKTRACETEARDOWN: diff --git a/include/linux/blkdev.h b/include/linux/blkdev.h index c3e8f7cf96be9..3ed5e03109c29 100644 --- a/include/linux/blkdev.h +++ b/include/linux/blkdev.h @@ -128,6 +128,8 @@ typedef unsigned int __bitwise blk_mode_t; #define BLK_OPEN_WRITE_IOCTL ((__force blk_mode_t)(1 << 4)) /* open is exclusive wrt all other BLK_OPEN_WRITE opens to the device */ #define BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES ((__force blk_mode_t)(1 << 5)) +/* return partition scanning errors */ +#define BLK_OPEN_STRICT_SCAN ((__force blk_mode_t)(1 << 5)) struct gendisk { /* -- 2.44.0.478.gd926399ef9-goog
