Subject: [Drbd-dev] [PATCH] drbd: correctly submit flush bio on barrier
Date: Wed,  3 May 2023 14:19:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230503121937.17232-1-christoph.boehmwalder@linbit.com> (raw)

When we receive a flush command (or "barrier" in DRBD), we currently use
a REQ_OP_FLUSH with the REQ_PREFLUSH flag set.

The correct way to submit a flush bio is by using a REQ_OP_WRITE without
any data, and set the REQ_PREFLUSH flag.

Since commit b4a6bb3a67aa ("block: add a sanity check for non-write
flush/fua bios"), this triggers a warning in the block layer, but this
has been broken for quite some time before that.

So use the correct set of flags to actually make the flush happen.
