[PATCH] sd: make ->no_write_same independent of reported ->max_ws_blocks

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

 



Due to reported problems with Write Same on ATA devices,
commit 0ce1b18c42a5 ("libata: Some drives failing on SCT Write Same")
strived to report non-support for Write Same on non-zoned ATA devices.

However, due to the following control flow in sd_config_write_same() this
doesn't always take effect, namely if the ->max_ws_blocks as set in the
by the ATA Identify Device exceeds SD_WS10_BLOCKS:

  if (sdkp->max_ws_blocks > SD_MAX_WS10_BLOCKS)
    [...]
  else if (sdkp->ws16 || sdkp->ws10 || sdkp->device->no_report_opcodes)
    [...]
  else {
    sdkp->device->no_write_same = 1;
    sdkp->max_ws_blocks = 0;
  }

Since commit e73c23ff736e ("block: add async variant of
blkdev_issue_zeroout"), blkdev_issue_zeroout() got a little bit more
sensitive towards failing Write Sames on devices that claim to support them
and this results in messages like

  EXT4-fs (dm-1): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 2625094 at
                  logical offset 2032 with max blocks 2 with error 121
  EXT4-fs (dm-1): This should not happen!! Data will be lost

The block limits VPD page of the device in question quotes a value of
0x3fffc0 > 0xffff == SD_MAX_WS10_BLOCKS for the device in question.

The error code 121 is EREMOTEIO which gets asserted by scsi_io_completion()
in case of invalid requests due to invalid command opcodes.

Fix this by doing the sdkp->max_ws_blocks > SD_MAX_WS10_BLOCKS handling
only if some kind of Write Same support is reported, i.e. only if
  sdkp->ws16 || sdkp->ws10 || sdkp->device->no_report_opcodes
holds. Let the handling code for the non-support case thus take effect,
if needed.
