block: fine-granular CAP_SYS_ADMIN for Persistent Reservation

2023-06-20T18:49:23+00:00

Allow of unprivileged Persistent Reservation operations on devices
if the write permission check on the device node has passed.

brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 Jun 13 07:09 /dev/nvme0n1

In the example above, the "disk" group of nvme0n1 is also allowed to
make reservations on the device even without CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

block: disallow Persistent Reservation on partitions

2023-06-20T18:49:23+00:00

Refuse Persistent Reservation operations on partitions as reservation
on partitions doesn't make sense.

Besides, introduce blkdev_pr_allowed() helper, where more policies could
be placed here later.

block: replace fmode_t with a block-specific type for block open flags

2023-06-12T14:04:05+00:00

The only overlap between the block open flags mapped into the fmode_t and
other uses of fmode_t are FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE.  Define a new
blk_mode_t instead for use in blkdev_get_by_{dev,path}, ->open and
->ioctl and stop abusing fmode_t.

block: remove unused fmode_t arguments from ioctl handlers

2023-06-12T14:04:04+00:00

A few ioctl handlers have fmode_t arguments that are entirely unused,
remove them.

block: use the holder as indication for exclusive opens

2023-06-12T14:04:04+00:00

The current interface for exclusive opens is rather confusing as it
requires both the FMODE_EXCL flag and a holder.  Remove the need to pass
FMODE_EXCL and just key off the exclusive open off a non-NULL holder.

For blkdev_put this requires adding the holder argument, which provides
better debug checking that only the holder actually releases the hold,
but at the same time allows removing the now superfluous mode argument.

block: introduce holder ops

2023-06-05T16:53:04+00:00

Add a new blk_holder_ops structure, which is passed to blkdev_get_by_* and
installed in the block_device for exclusive claims.  It will be used to
allow the block layer to call back into the user of the block device for
thing like notification of a removed device or a device resize.

block: fix scan partition for exclusively open device again

2023-02-17T13:15:57+00:00

As explained in commit 36369f46e917 ("block: Do not reread partition table
on exclusively open device"), reread partition on the device that is
exclusively opened by someone else is problematic.

This patch will make sure partition scan will only be proceed if current
thread open the device exclusively, or the device is not opened
exclusively, and in the later case, other scanners and exclusive openers
will be blocked temporarily until partition scan is done.

block: Revert "block: Do not reread partition table on exclusively open device"

2023-02-17T13:15:57+00:00

This reverts commit 36369f46e91785688a5f39d7a5590e3f07981316.

This patch can't fix the problem in a corner case that device can be
opened exclusively after the checking and before blkdev_get_by_dev().
We'll use a new solution to fix the problem in the next patch, and
the new solution doesn't need to change apis.

block: Do not reread partition table on exclusively open device

2022-12-01T14:44:03+00:00

Since commit 10c70d95c0f2 ("block: remove the bd_openers checks in
blk_drop_partitions") we allow rereading of partition table although
there are users of the block device. This has an undesirable consequence
that e.g. if sda and sdb are assembled to a RAID1 device md0 with
partitions, BLKRRPART ioctl on sda will rescan partition table and
create sda1 device. This partition device under a raid device confuses
some programs (such as libstorage-ng used for initial partitioning for
distribution installation) leading to failures.

Fix the problem refusing to rescan partitions if there is another user
that has the block device exclusively open.
