[PATCH] block: Allow REQ_FUA|REQ_READ

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

 



REQ_FUA|REQ_READ means "do a read that bypasses the controller cache",
the same as writes.

This is useful for when the filesystem gets a checksum error, it's
possible that a bit was flipped in the controller cache, and when we
retry we want to retry the entire IO, not just from cache.

The nvme driver already passes through REQ_FUA for reads, not just
writes, so disabling the warning is sufficient to start using it, and
bcachefs is implementing additional retries for checksum errors so can
immediately use it.
