[PATCH] block: reopen the device in blkdev_reread_part

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

 



Historically the BLKRRPART ioctls called into the now defunct ->revalidate
method, which caused the sd driver to check if any media is present.
When the ->revalidate method was removed this revalidation was lost,
leading to lots of I/O errors when using the eject command.  Fix this by
reopening the device to rescan the partitions, and thus calling the
revalidation logic in the sd driver.

Fixes: 471bd0af544b ("sd: use bdev_check_media_change")
