When do block-attach/block-detach test with below steps, umount hangs in the guest. Furthermore shutdown ends up being stuck when umounting file-systems. 1. start guest. 2. attach new block device by xm block-attach in Dom0. 3. mount new disk in guest. 4. execute xm block-detach to detach the block device in dom0 until timeout 5. Any request to the disk will hung. Root cause: This issue is caused when setting backend device's state to 'XenbusStateClosing', which sends to the frontend the XenbusStateClosing notification. When frontend receives the notification it tries to release the disk in blkfront_closing(), but at that moment the disk is still in use by guest, so frontend refuses to close. Specifically it sets the disk state to XenbusStateClosing and sends the notification to backend - when backend receives the event, it disconnects the vbd from real device, and sets the vbd device state to XenbusStateClosing. The backend disconnects the real device/file, and any IO requests to the disk in guest will end up in ether, leaving disk DEAD and set to XenbusStateClosing. When the guest wants to disconnect the disk, umount will hang on blkif_release()->xlvbd_release_gendisk() as it is unable to send any IO to the disk, which prevents clean system shutdown. Solution: Don't disconnect backend until frontend state switched to XenbusStateClosed.

Instead of unconditionally creating a fixed number of dead loop devices which need to be investigated by storage handling services, even when they are never used, we allow distros start with 0 loop devices and have losetup(8) and similar switch to the dynamic /dev/loop-control interface instead of searching /dev/loop%i for free devices.

Loop devices today have a fixed pre-allocated number of usually 8. The number can only be changed at module init time. To find a free device to use, /dev/loop%i needs to be scanned, and all devices need to be opened until a free one is possibly found. This adds a new /dev/loop-control device node, that allows to dynamically find or allocate a free device, and to add and remove loop devices from the running system: LOOP_CTL_ADD adds a specific device. Arg is the number of the device. It returns the device i or a negative error code. LOOP_CTL_REMOVE removes a specific device, Arg is the number the device. It returns the device i or a negative error code. LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE finds the next unbound device or allocates a new one. No arg is given. It returns the device i or a negative error code. The loop kernel module gets automatically loaded when /dev/loop-control is accessed the first time. The alias specified in the module, instructs udev to create this 'dead' device node, even when the module is not loaded. Example: cfd = open("/dev/loop-control", O_RDWR); # add a new specific loop device err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_ADD, devnr); # remove a specific loop device err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_REMOVE, devnr); # find or allocate a free loop device to use devnr = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE); sprintf(loopname, "/dev/loop%i", devnr); ffd = open("backing-file", O_RDWR); lfd = open(loopname, O_RDWR); err = ioctl(lfd, LOOP_SET_FD, ffd); Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NKay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

The last commit, drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive, introduced a cond_resched_lock(), where the lock in question is taken with irqs disabled. As we must not schedule with IRQs disabled, and cond_resched_lock_irq() does not exist, yet, we re-aquire the spin_lock_irq() for each bitmap page processed in turn.

During bitmap exchange, when using the RLE bitmap compression scheme, we have a code path that can set the whole bitmap at once. To avoid holding spin_lock_irq() for too long, we used to lock out other bitmap modifications during bitmap exchange by other means, and then, knowing we have exclusive access to the bitmap, modify it without the spinlock, and with IRQs enabled. Since we now allow local IO to continue, potentially setting additional bits during the bitmap receive phase, this is no longer true, and we get uncoordinated updates of bitmap members, causing bm_set to no longer accurately reflect the total number of set bits. To actually see this, you'd need to have a large bitmap, use RLE bitmap compression, and have busy IO during sync handshake and bitmap exchange. Fix this by taking the spin_lock_irq() in this code path as well, but calling cond_resched_lock() after each page worth of bits processed.

The 'max_part' parameter determines how many partitions are supported on each nbd device. However the actual number can be changed to the power of 2 minus 1 form during the module initialization as alloc_disk() is called with (1 << part_shift) for some reason. So adjust 'max_part' also at least for consistency with loop and brd. It is exported via sysfs already, and a user should check this value after module loading if [s]he wants to use that number correctly (i.e. fdisk or something).

The 'max_part' parameter controls the number of maximum partition a nbd device can have.

Export 'rd_nr', 'rd_size' and 'max_part' parameters to sysfs so user can know that how many devices are allowed, how big each device is and how many partitions are supported. If 'max_part' is 0, it means simply the device doesn't support partitioning. Also note that 'max_part' can be adjusted to power of 2 minus 1 form if needed. User should check this value after the module loading if he/she want to use that number correctly (i.e. fdisk, mknod, etc.).

If 'rd_nr' param was not specified, 16 (can be adjusted via CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT) devices would be created by default but comment said 1. Fix it. Signed-off-by: NNamhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

When finding or allocating a ram disk device, brd_probe() did not take partition numbers into account so that it can result to a different device. Consider following example (I set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=4 for simplicity) : $ sudo modprobe brd max_part=15 $ ls -l /dev/ram* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 0 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 16 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 32 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 48 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram3 $ sudo mknod /dev/ram4 b 1 64 $ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram4 bs=4k count=256 256+0 records in 256+0 records out 1048576 bytes (1.0 MB) copied, 0.00215578 s, 486 MB/s namhyung@leonhard:linux$ ls -l /dev/ram* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 0 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 16 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 32 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 48 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram3 brw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 64 2011-05-25 15:45 /dev/ram4 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 1024 2011-05-25 15:44 /dev/ram64 After this patch, /dev/ram4 - instead of /dev/ram64 - was accessed correctly. In addition, 'range' passed to blk_register_region() should include all range of dev_t that RAMDISK_MAJOR can address. It does not need to be limited by partition numbers unless 'rd_nr' param was specified.
