This makes sense to me because then the job won't complete successfully anyway. is_read=true feels wrong for a flush. (Same in all three jobs.) retry_on_ignore=true means that this is a potential tight loop that will keep the process at 100% CPU if the request fails repeatedly. (In file-posix, flush failing once means that it will keep failing forever.) I wonder if we shouldn't use retry_on_ignore=false for all end-of-job flushes because there isn't really a chance to retry successfully later. > block_copy_call_free(s); > job->bg_bcs_call = NULL; > return ret; > diff --git a/block/commit.c b/block/commit.c > index 5df3d05346..711093504f 100644 > --- a/block/commit.c > +++ b/block/commit.c > @@ -201,7 +201,11 @@ static int coroutine_fn commit_run(Job *job, Error **errp) > } > } > > - return 0; > + do { > + ret = blk_co_flush(s->base); > + } while (block_job_handle_error(&s->common, ret, s->on_error, true, true)); Why does commit still flush even if we return an error? > + return ret; > } > > static const BlockJobDriver commit_job_driver = { > diff --git a/block/stream.c b/block/stream.c > index 999d9e56d4..3d374094f5 100644 > --- a/block/stream.c > +++ b/block/stream.c > @@ -160,6 +160,7 @@ static int coroutine_fn stream_run(Job *job, Error **errp) > int64_t offset = 0; > int error = 0; > int64_t n = 0; /* bytes */ > + int ret = -1; > > WITH_GRAPH_RDLOCK_GUARD() { > unfiltered_bs = bdrv_skip_filters(s->target_bs); > @@ -177,7 +178,6 @@ static int coroutine_fn stream_run(Job *job, Error **errp) > > for ( ; offset < len; offset += n) { > bool copy; > - int ret = -1; > > /* Note that even when no rate limit is applied we need to yield > * with no pending I/O here so that bdrv_drain_all() returns. These two hunks looked suspicious because ret is now set only once instead of in each loop iteration. However, it doesn't matter, the initialisation was dead code anyway and the value was never read. Of course, it is still dead code, and -1 isn't a good return code anyway (it should be -errno), so maybe remove the initialisation? > @@ -235,8 +235,12 @@ static int coroutine_fn stream_run(Job *job, Error **errp) > } > } > > + do { > + ret = blk_co_flush(s->blk); > + } while (block_job_handle_error(&s->common, ret, s->on_error, true, false)); Same here about flushing even on error. > + > /* Do not remove the backing file if an error was there but ignored. */ > - return error; > + return error ?: ret; > } > > static const BlockJobDriver stream_job_driver = { > diff --git a/blockjob.c b/blockjob.c > index 32007f31a9..70a7af2077 100644 > --- a/blockjob.c > +++ b/blockjob.c > @@ -626,3 +626,37 @@ AioContext *block_job_get_aio_context(BlockJob *job) > GLOBAL_STATE_CODE(); > return job->job.aio_context; > } > + > +bool coroutine_fn > +block_job_handle_error(BlockJob *job, int ret, BlockdevOnError on_err, > + bool is_read, bool retry_on_ignore) > +{ > + assert(ret >= 0); > + > + if (ret == 0) { > + return false; > + } > + > + if (job_is_cancelled(&job->job)) { > + return false; > + } > + > + BlockErrorAction action = > + block_job_error_action(job, on_err, is_read, -ret); > + switch (action) { > + case BLOCK_ERROR_ACTION_REPORT: > + return false; > + case BLOCK_ERROR_ACTION_IGNORE: > + if (!retry_on_ignore) { > + return false; > + } > + /* fallthrough */ What is the idea behind having a pause point for "ignore"?
