Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.3 34/37] xen/blkfront: Only check REQ_FUA for writes
Date: Wed, 31 May 2023 09:40:16 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230531134020.3383253-34-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230531134020.3383253-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@citrix.com>

[ Upstream commit b6ebaa8100090092aa602530d7e8316816d0c98d ]

The existing code silently converts read operations with the
REQ_FUA bit set into write-barrier operations. This results in data
loss as the backend scribbles zeroes over the data instead of returning
it.

While the REQ_FUA bit doesn't make sense on a read operation, at least
one well-known out-of-tree kernel module does set it and since it
results in data loss, let's be safe here and only look at REQ_FUA for
writes.
