Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 2/6] nvdimm: pmem: keep PREFLUSH before data writes
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 21:43:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911014355.4149601-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911014355.4149601-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Li Chen <me@linux.beauty>
[ Upstream commit c644a2f8fef5618fcf453c591177700fd07dd024 ]
pmem_submit_bio() records a REQ_PREFLUSH error, but continues to copy the
bio data and can later overwrite the error with a successful REQ_FUA flush.
That lets data writes run after a failed preflush and can complete the bio
successfully despite the failed ordering barrier.
Run the REQ_PREFLUSH flush synchronously before touching the bio data and
complete the bio with the flush error if it fails. Keep asynchronous flush
chaining for REQ_FUA. At that point, data copy has completed and the parent
bio can wait for the chained flush bio.
