Subject: [PATCH 0/4] block: add IOC_PR_READ_KEYS and IOC_PR_READ_RESERVATION ioctls
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2025 11:35:56 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251126163600.583036-1-stefanha@redhat.com> (raw)
This series exposes struct pr_ops pr_read_keys() and pr_read_reservations() to
userspace as ioctls, making it possible to list registered reservation keys and
report the current reservation on a block device.
The new ioctls are needed by applications or cluster managers that rely on
inspecting the PR state. This is something that has been possible with SCSI-
and NVME-specific commands but not with the PR ioctls. I hope to move QEMU from
SG_IO to PR ioctls so that NVMe host block devices can be supported alongside
SCSI devices without protocol-specific commands.
These ioctls will also make troubleshooting possible with the blkpr(8)
util-linux tool, for which I have prepared a separate patch series.
Stefan Hajnoczi (4):
scsi: sd: reject invalid pr_read_keys() num_keys values
nvme: reject invalid pr_read_keys() num_keys values
block: add IOC_PR_READ_KEYS ioctl
block: add IOC_PR_READ_RESERVATION ioctl
