From d2bdbee0d91a5d3ba2e439ce889e20bfe6fd4f1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Bellinger Date: Tue, 14 May 2013 23:41:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] target/iblock: Fix WCE=1 + DPOFUA=1 backend WRITE regression This patch fixes a regression bug introduced in v3.9-rc1 where if the underlying struct block_device for a IBLOCK backend is configured with WCE=1 + DPOFUA=1 settings, the rw = WRITE assignment no longer occurs in iblock_execute_rw(), and rw = 0 is passed to iblock_submit_bios() in effect causing a READ bio operation to occur. The offending commit is: commit d0c8b259f8970d39354c1966853363345d401330 Author: Nicholas Bellinger Date: Tue Jan 29 22:10:06 2013 -0800 target/iblock: Use backend REQ_FLUSH hint for WriteCacheEnabled status Note the WCE=1 + DPOFUA=0, WCE=0 + DPOFUA=1, and WCE=0 + DPOFUA=0 cases are not affected by this regression bug.
