      block: flush MEDIA_CHANGE from drivers on close(2) · 85ef06d1
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, only open(2) is defined as the 'clearing' point.  It has
      two roles - first, it's an acknowledgement from userland indicating
      that the event has been received and kernel can clear pending states
      and proceed to generate more events.  Secondly, it's passed on to
      device drivers as a hint indicating that a synchronization point has
      been reached and it might want to take a deeper look at the device.
      
      The latter currently is only used by sr which uses two different
      mechanisms - GET_EVENT_MEDIA_STATUS_NOTIFICATION and TEST_UNIT_READY
      to discover events, where the former is lighter weight and safe to be
      used repeatedly but may not provide full coverage.  Among other
      things, GET_EVENT can't detect media removal while TUR can.
      
      This patch makes close(2) - blkdev_put() - indicate clearing hint for
      MEDIA_CHANGE to drivers.  disk_check_events() is renamed to
      disk_flush_events() and updated to take @mask for events to flush
      which is or'd to ev->clearing and will be passed to the driver on the
      next ->check_events() invocation.
      
      This change makes sr generate MEDIA_CHANGE when media is ejected from
      userland - e.g. with eject(1).
      
      Note: Given the current usage, it seems @clearing hint is needlessly
      complex.  disk_clear_events() can simply clear all events and the hint
      can be boolean @flush.
