[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.12 62/63] block: fix a race between del_gendisk and BLKRRPART

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

 



From: Gulam Mohamed <gulam.mohamed@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit bc6a385132601c29a6da1dbf8148c0d3c9ad36dc ]

When BLKRRPART is called concurrently with del_gendisk, the partitions
rescan can create a stale partition that will never be be cleaned up.

Fix this by checking the the disk is up before rescanning partitions
while under bd_mutex.
