Hi Jan, Indeed there is another issue implicitly reported by below console output from syzkaller: [ 245.524424][ T9455] loop_reread_partitions: partition scan of loop0 () failed (rc=-13) [ 245.563340][ T9499] kasan: CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE enabled [ 245.576412][ T9489] __loop_clr_fd: partition scan of loop0 failed (rc=-13) [ 245.581275][ T9499] kasan: GPF could be caused by NULL-ptr deref or user memory access [ 245.602596][ T9499] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN I think rc=-13 is because of below code at line 168: 162 int __blkdev_reread_part(struct block_device *bdev) 163 { 164 struct gendisk *disk = bdev->bd_disk; 165 166 if (!disk_part_scan_enabled(disk) || bdev != bdev->bd_contains) 167 return -EINVAL; 168 if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) 169 return -EACCES; 170 171 lockdep_assert_held(&bdev->bd_mutex); 172 173 return rescan_partitions(disk, bdev); 174 } 175 EXPORT_SYMBOL(__blkdev_reread_part); I can reproduce this by 'chown username /dev/loop0' on my test machine. Taking 'losetup -d /dev/loop0' as sample, as /dev/loop0 belongs to my username, I am able to detach the loop without 'su'. However, because of above line 168, the partition scan would fail. Should we always assume the user should have admin privilege to detach the loop and this is not a bug? Thank you very much!
