Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] loop: fix two issues introduced by prior commit

This patch set fix two issues introduced by prior commit.


[PATCH v2 1/2] loop: do not print warn message if partition scan is successful

[PATCH v2 1/2] fixes d57f3374ba48 ("loop: Move special partition reread
handling in loop_clr_fd()") to not always print warn message even when
partition scan is successful.


[PATCH v2 2/2] loop: set GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN after blkdev_reread_part()

[PATCH v2 2/2] fixes 0da03cab87e6 ("loop: Fix deadlock when calling
blkdev_reread_part()") to not set GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN before partition
scan when detaching loop device from the file.

Changed since v1:
* move the setting of lo->lo_state to Lo_unbound after partscan has finished as well
(suggested by Jan Kara)

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] loop: set GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN after blkdev_reread_part()

Commit 0da03cab87e6
("loop: Fix deadlock when calling blkdev_reread_part()") moves
blkdev_reread_part() out of the loop_ctl_mutex. However,
GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN is set before __blkdev_reread_part(). As a result,
__blkdev_reread_part() will fail the check of GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN and
will not rescan the loop device to delete all partitions.

Below are steps to reproduce the issue:

step1 # dd if=/dev/zero of=tmp.raw bs=1M count=100
step2 # losetup -P /dev/loop0 tmp.raw
step3 # parted /dev/loop0 mklabel gpt
step4 # parted -a none -s /dev/loop0 mkpart primary 64s 1
step5 # losetup -d /dev/loop0

Step5 will not be able to delete /dev/loop0p1 (introduced by step4) and
there is below kernel warning message:

[ 464.414043] __loop_clr_fd: partition scan of loop0 failed (rc=-22)

This patch sets GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN after blkdev_reread_part().

Thanks the patch looks good! Just one nit below:

I don't think there's any benefit in having this small function with a single
caller and furthermore with the subtle sideeffect that it changes lo_state.
So I'd just put the code inline in __loop_clr_fd(). With that you can add:

Thank you very much!

I will send out v3 with the Reviewed-by and put the code inline in __loop_clr_fd().
