[PATCH v2 1/2] block: Add new BLK_STS_SELFTEST status

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

 



There are quite a lot of filesystems doing their verification work done
at endio hook or hook before submitting bio.

Normally such verification should return -EUCLEAN to indicate something
unexpected.

However there is no BLK_STS_* bit for that, this makes every selftest
error to be interpreted to EIO, which lowers the severity.

This patch will add a new BLK_STS_UCLEAN, to allow -EUCLEAN to be
converted to BLK_STS_UCLEAN, and then converted back to -EUCLEAN without
losing anything.

- Use BLK_STS_UCLEAN to replace the previous stupid naming scheme.
