From f216d1e9339dfb2981d2a0e44a15501cfa76f4ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Elliott Date: Thu, 31 May 2018 18:36:36 -0500 Subject: linvdimm, pmem: Preserve read-only setting for pmem devices commit 254a4cd50b9fe2291a12b8902e08e56dcc4e9b10 upstream. The pmem driver does not honor a forced read-only setting for very long: $ blockdev --setro /dev/pmem0 $ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0 1 followed by various commands like these: $ blockdev --rereadpt /dev/pmem0 or $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/pmem0 results in this in the kernel serial log: nd_pmem namespace0.0: region0 read-write, marking pmem0 read-write with the read-only setting lost: $ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0 0 That's from bus.c nvdimm_revalidate_disk(), which always applies the setting from nd_region (which is initially based on the ACPI NFIT NVDIMM state flags not_armed bit). In contrast, commit 20bd1d026aac ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when re-reading partition") fixed this issue for SCSI devices to preserve the previous setting if it was set to read-only. This patch modifies bus.c to preserve any previous read-only setting. It also eliminates the kernel serial log print except for cases where read-write is changed to read-only, so it doesn't print read-only to read-only non-changes.
