Thanks! Thanks for testing! I don't particularly like this stuff in loop, though. It's quite nasty and depends on other behaviour. It would be prettier if we just had rescan_partitions() do the right thing, and only drop partitions and not rescan if NO_PART_SCAN is set. Ala the below, dropping the loop change and implementing that change in the core code. Phillip, can you check whether this does the right thing for your bug too? diff --git a/block/ioctl.c b/block/ioctl.c index a31d91d..8b78b5a 100644 --- a/block/ioctl.c +++ b/block/ioctl.c @@ -155,7 +155,7 @@ static int blkdev_reread_part(struct block_device *bdev) struct gendisk *disk = bdev->bd_disk; int res; - if (!disk_part_scan_enabled(disk) || bdev != bdev->bd_contains) + if (bdev != bdev->bd_contains) return -EINVAL; if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) return -EACCES; diff --git a/block/partition-generic.c b/block/partition-generic.c index ae95ee6..bf4bb60 100644 --- a/block/partition-generic.c +++ b/block/partition-generic.c @@ -431,6 +431,15 @@ rescan: disk->fops->revalidate_disk(disk); check_disk_size_change(disk, bdev); bdev->bd_invalidated = 0; + + /* + * If partition scanning is disabled, we are done. + */ + if (!disk_part_scan_enabled(disk)) { + kobject_uevent(&disk_to_dev(disk)->kobj, KOBJ_CHANGE); + return 0; + } + if (!get_capacity(disk) || !(state = check_partition(disk, bdev))) return 0; if (IS_ERR(state)) { diff --git a/drivers/block/loop.c b/drivers/block/loop.c index 2c127f9..8b6df76 100644 --- a/drivers/block/loop.c +++ b/drivers/block/loop.c @@ -1057,24 +1057,6 @@ static int loop_clr_fd(struct loop_device *lo) mutex_unlock(&lo->lo_ctl_mutex); /* - * Remove all partitions, since BLKRRPART won't remove user - * added partitions when max_part=0 - */ - if (bdev) { - struct disk_part_iter piter; - struct hd_struct *part; - - mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_mutex, 1); - invalidate_partition(bdev->bd_disk, 0); - disk_part_iter_init(&piter, bdev->bd_disk, - DISK_PITER_INCL_EMPTY); - while ((part = disk_part_iter_next(&piter))) - delete_partition(bdev->bd_disk, part->partno); - disk_part_iter_exit(&piter); - mutex_unlock(&bdev->bd_mutex); - } - - /* * Need not hold lo_ctl_mutex to fput backing file. * Calling fput holding lo_ctl_mutex triggers a circular * lock dependency possibility warning as fput can take -- Jens Axboe _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
