Subject: [PATCH] dmraid: remove partitions with O_RDONLY
Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2017 22:47:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171026204722.9150-1-mwilck@suse.com> (raw)
It's not necessary to use O_RDWR to use BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION.
It's actually harmful, because closing the device will cause
an IN_CLOSE_WRITE inotify event, which will trigger a BLKRRPART
from systemd, which will reinstate all partitions just deleted.
