[PATCH] block: check disk exist before trying to add partition

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

 



If disk have been deleted, we should return fail for ioctl
BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION. Otherwise, the directory /sys/class/block
may remain invalid symlinks file. The race as following:

blkdev_open
				del_gendisk
				    disk->flags &= ~GENHD_FL_UP;
				    blk_drop_partitions
blkpg_ioctl
    bdev_add_partition
    add_partition
        device_add
	    device_add_class_symlinks

ioctl may add_partition after del_gendisk() have tried to delete
partitions. Then, symlinks file will be created.
