Hi Ming, I'm developing the answers in code the issues you raised. It will just take a moment to complete flushing those out. In the meantime just want to point out why I think block/011 isn't a real test. On Thu, May 17, 2018 at 07:10:59AM +0800, Ming Lei wrote: > All simulation in block/011 may happen in reality. If this test actually simulates reality, then the following one line patch (plus explanation for why) would be a real "fix" as this is very successful in passing block/011. :) --- diff --git a/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c b/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c index 1faa32cd07da..dcc5746304c4 100644 --- a/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c +++ b/drivers/nvme/host/pci.c @@ -2118,6 +2118,12 @@ static int nvme_pci_enable(struct nvme_dev *dev) if (pci_enable_device_mem(pdev)) return result; + /* + * blktests block/011 disables the device without the driver knowing. + * We'll just enable the device twice to get the enable_cnt > 1 + * so that the test's disabling does absolutely nothing. + */ + pci_enable_device_mem(pdev); pci_set_master(pdev); --
