-Subject: [PATCH 2/2] blk-mq: fix corruption with direct issue
-
-If we attempt a direct issue to a SCSI device, and it returns BUSY, then
-we queue the request up normally. However, the SCSI layer may have
-already setup SG tables etc for this particular command. If we later
-merge with this request, then the old tables are no longer valid. Once
-we issue the IO, we only read/write the original part of the request,
-not the new state of it.
-
-This causes data corruption, and is most often noticed with the file
-system complaining about the just read data being invalid:
-
-[ 235.934465] EXT4-fs error (device sda1): ext4_iget:4831: inode #7142: comm dpkg-query: bad extra_isize 24937 (inode size 256)
-
-because most of it is garbage...
-
-This doesn't happen from the normal issue path, as we will simply defer
-the request to the hardware queue dispatch list if we fail. Once it's on
-the dispatch list, we never merge with it.
-
-Fix this from the direct issue path by flagging the request as
-REQ_NOMERGE so we don't change the size of it before issue.
-
