Am I missing something? Yes, when the bdev_disk_changed() is called, all disk block devices are deleted and new ones are re-created. Therefore, the information about the attached filters will be lost. This is equivalent to removing the disk and adding it back. For the blksnap module, partition rescan will mean the loss of the change trackers data. If a snapshot was created, then such a partition rescan will cause the snapshot to be corrupted. There was an idea to do filtering at the disk level, but I abandoned it.
