Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] ublk: introduce UBLK_CMD_TRY_STOP_DEV
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2026 22:33:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260106203333.30589-1-yoav@nvidia.com> (raw)
Hello,
This patch series introduces a new command for ublk device management.
The first patch changes `ublk_ctrl_stop_dev()` to return void, since it
always returned 0. This simplifies the API.
The second patch introduces `UBLK_CMD_TRY_STOP_DEV`, which stops the
device only if there are no active openers. Unlike the existing stop
command (`UBLK_CMD_STOP_DEV`), this command avoids disrupting active
users by returning -EBUSY if the device is busy.
These patches only introduce the new command and API simplification
without altering existing behavior for active users
Changes since v2:
- Address Ming Lei’s comments in patch 2:
- Add a feature flag and some minor comments.
- Patch 1 unchanged, keeps Reviewed-by
Changes since v3:
- Address Caleb's comments in patch 2
- add to kublk.c
- add to auto features
- set feature flag to 17
