loop: fix I/O error on fsync() in detached loop devices
commit 4ceddce55eb35d15b0f87f5dcf6f0058fd15d3a4 upstream. There's an I/O error on fsync() in a detached loop device if it has been previously attached. The issue is write cache is enabled in the attach path in loop_configure() but it isn't disabled in the detach path; thus it remains enabled in the block device regardless of whether it is attached or not. Now fsync() can get an I/O request that will just be failed later in loop_queue_rq() as device's state is not 'Lo_bound'. So, disable write cache in the detach path. Do so based on the queue flag, not the loop device flag for read-only (used to enable) as the queue flag can be changed via sysfs even on read-only loop devices (e.g., losetup -r.) Test-case: # DEV=/dev/loop7 # IMG=/tmp/image # truncate --size 1M $IMG # losetup $DEV $IMG # losetup -d $DEV Before: # strace -e fsync parted -s $DEV print 2>&1 | grep fsync fsync(3) = -1 EIO (Input/output error) Warning: Error fsyncing/closing /dev/loop7: Input/output error [ 982.529929] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev loop7, sector 0 op 0x1:(WRITE) flags 0x800 phys_seg 0 prio class 0 After: # strace -e fsync parted -s $DEV print 2>&1 | grep fsync fsync(3) = 0 Co-developed-by: Eric Desrochers <eric.desrochers@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Desrochers <eric.desrochers@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mauricio Faria de Oliveira <mfo@canonical.com> Tested-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <krisman@collabora.com> Reviewed-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Hanjun Guo <guohanjun@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
