SubjectRe: [PATCH] bcache: dont reset bio opf in bch_data_insert_start
Date
Hi Christop:

Yes, indeed, there is an assume that the op is just possible to be 0
(REQ_OP_READ) or 1 (REQ_OP_WRITE).

REQ_OP_WRITE is from cached_dev_submit_bio() which would be submitted by
upper user.

REQ_OP_READ is from bcache itself, such as cached_dev_read_done() (when
we found cache miss, we will read

data from backing and then we want to insert it into cache device. then
there is a read bio with data reach here, we

need to set the bio_op to REQ_OP_WRITE, and send this bio to cache device).

This commit only want to fix the logic bug introduced in ad0d9e76a412
("bcache: use bio op accessors"),

that's more likely a partial revert.


I agree that we can make it more clearly and explicitly.

But I found there is no accessor to set op only, besides, the
bio_set_op_attrs() was marked as obsolete.

There are some others doing similar things as below:

blk_rq_map_kern():

bio->bi_opf &= ~REQ_OP_MASK;

bio->bi_opf |= req_op(rq);


So what about below:

diff --git a/drivers/md/bcache/request.c b/drivers/md/bcache/request.c
index c7cadaafa947..bacc7366002f 100644
--- a/drivers/md/bcache/request.c

+               /*

+               n->bi_opf &= ~REQ_OP_MASK;
+               n->bi_opf |= REQ_OP_WRITE;
                bch_submit_bbio(n, op->c, k, 0);
        } while (n != bio);

Thanx

Yang
