Hi Jens, This is a small patch-series which allows zone-mgmt ops to handle SIGKILL. This patch series formatted on the top of following patch:- https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=157321402002207&w=2. * Changes from V1:- 1. Export blk_should abort() to avoid code duplication. 2. Reuse blk_should_abort() and return -EINTR when zone-mgmt ops is interrupted when last submit_bio_wait() is successful. In case you want me to add original patch posted by Tetsuo Honda, I'll be happy to respin this series so we can have everything in one patch-series. Regards, Chaitanya In case someone is interested :- Without this patch :- # blkzone reset -o 0 -c 1000 /dev/nullb0 ^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C^C [ 174.115065] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 993 [ 174.125071] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 994 [ 174.135076] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 995 [ 174.145082] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 996 [ 174.155087] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 997 [ 174.165091] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 998 [ 174.175096] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 999 With this patch :- # blkzone reset -o 0 -c 1000 /dev/nullb0 ^C [ 211.889379] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 191 [ 211.899420] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 192 [ 211.909424] null_blk: null_zone_mgmt 163 zoneid 193 Chaitanya Kulkarni (2): block: export blk_should_abort() block: allow zone_mgmt_ops to bail out on SIGKILL block/blk-lib.c | 3 ++- block/blk-zoned.c | 5 ++++- block/blk.h | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) -- 2.22.1
