[PATCH 5.8 048/177] block: restore a specific error code in bdev_del_partition

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

 



From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 88ce2a530cc9865a894454b2e40eba5957a60e1a ]

mdadm relies on the fact that deleting an invalid partition returns
-ENXIO or -ENOTTY to detect if a block device is a partition or a
whole device.
