From 0fb5b1fb30fba3671dd5b1489d78e93e08d62e4e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Martin K. Petersen" Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2016 00:52:12 -0500 Subject: block/sd: Return -EREMOTEIO when WRITE SAME and DISCARD are disabled When a storage device rejects a WRITE SAME command we will disable write same functionality for the device and return -EREMOTEIO to the block layer. -EREMOTEIO will in turn prevent DM from retrying the I/O and/or failing the path. Yiwen Jiang discovered a small race where WRITE SAME requests issued simultaneously would cause -EIO to be returned. This happened because any requests being prepared after WRITE SAME had been disabled for the device caused us to return BLKPREP_KILL. The latter caused the block layer to return -EIO upon completion. To overcome this we introduce BLKPREP_INVALID which indicates that this is an invalid request for the device. blk_peek_request() is modified to return -EREMOTEIO in that case.
