Android-adb calls make_block_device_writable with ioctl(BLKROSET), which
will return error, make remount failed:
remount of /system failed;
couldn't make block device writable: Operation not permitted

I think you should elaborate here why the behaviour between -EINVAL and
-EPERM is different as they are both errors. In other words, add your
comment about how the ADB code is checking for a supported command.

yep. So if need to send v2 after comment from Ulf, I will add more into
commit-msg.


openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/block/platform/ff420000.dwmmc/by-name/system", O_RDONLY) = 3
ioctl(3, BLKROSET, 0)  = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)

The change is fine with me, but I agree with Seshagiri's comment that
instead of the above, move the following test to the mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd
and mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd functions:

if ((!capable(CAP_SYS_RAWIO)) || (bdev != bdev->bd_contains))
                 return -EPERM;


right, and both are ok to me :).
Adding this check for mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd and mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd
respectively may also looks like we produce two some code sections that do the same thing.

I think it depends on how Ulf want the solution to be? Let's wait for
Ulf' comment.

There is a case statement that then would return -EINVAL if the command
is not supported.

If you look at V3 of the patch "mmc: block: Add new ioctl to send multi
commands" [0] this is how we had it and only in V4 (the final version)
did we move it.

yes, I read V3 and V4 both to see how the patch was going. Thanks for
sharing it.


Cheers
Jon
