[PATCH v4 rebase 08/10] bdev: add open_finish

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

 



Opening a block device may require a long operation such as waiting for
the cdrom tray to close or disk to spin up. Performing this operation
with locks held locks out other attempts to open the device from
processes that donn't care about the medium state.

To avoid this issue and still be able to perform time-consuming checks
at open() the block device driver can provide open_finish(). If it does
opening the device proceeds even when an error is returned from open(),
bd_mutex is released and open_finish() is called. If open_finish()
succeeds the device is now open, if it fails release() is called.

When -ERESTARTSYS is returned from open() blkdev_get may loop without
calling open_finish(). On -ERESTARTSYS open_finish() is not called.

When -ENXIO is returned there is no device to retry opening so this
error needs to be honored and open_finish() not called.

Move a ret = 0 assignment up in the if/else branching to avoid returning
-ENXIO. Previously the return value was ignored on the unhandled branch.
