6.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Yihang Li <liyihang9@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4f9eedfa27ae5806ed10906bcceee7bae49c8941 upstream. If formatting a suspended disk (such as formatting with different DIF type), the disk will be resuming first, and then the format command will submit to the disk through SG_IO ioctl. When the disk is processing the format command, the system does not submit other commands to the disk. Therefore, the system attempts to suspend the disk again and sends the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command. However, the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command will fail because the disk is in the formatting process. This will cause the runtime_status of the disk to error and it is difficult for user to recover it. Error info like: [ 669.925325] sd 6:0:6:0: [sdg] Synchronizing SCSI cache [ 670.202371] sd 6:0:6:0: [sdg] Synchronize Cache(10) failed: Result: hostbyte=0x00 driverbyte=DRIVER_OK [ 670.216300] sd 6:0:6:0: [sdg] Sense Key : 0x2 [current] [ 670.221860] sd 6:0:6:0: [sdg] ASC=0x4 ASCQ=0x4 To solve the issue, ignore the error and return success/0 when format is in progress.
