[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2049689] Re: partprobe is broken on empty loopback device
This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-xilinx-
zynqmp/5.15.0-1029.33 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please
test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is
solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-xilinx-zynqmp'
to 'verification-done-jammy-linux-xilinx-zynqmp'. If the problem still
exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-xilinx-zynqmp'
to 'verification-failed-jammy-linux-xilinx-zynqmp'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

That's a result of an ioctl changing its error code in an incompatible

partprobe.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2049689] Re: partprobe is broken on empty loopback device
This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-aws/6.5.0-1015.15
kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and
update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the
tag 'verification-needed-mantic-linux-aws' to 'verification-done-mantic-
linux-aws'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-
needed-mantic-linux-aws' to 'verification-failed-mantic-linux-aws'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

That's a result of an ioctl changing its error code in an incompatible

partprobe.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2049689] Re: partprobe is broken on empty loopback device
It would be good to have a second bug report about the new finding. In some way
this is now working as designed but not as expected. Basically loop block
devices set a generic flag to disable partition support
(/sys/block/loop?/capabilities -> 0x200 GENHD_FL_NO_PART). There is a change in
5.19 which stops disabling partition support and just prevents automatic
partition scanning but that needs adjustments.
In the meantime there should be a work-around by using kpartx (kpartx -a
/dev/loop? -> /dev/mapper/loop?p...)

Plus, we already started the next releases..
I'll try to prioritize this, but it's very late to be included in the

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2049689] Re: partprobe is broken on empty loopback device
Kernel 5.15.0-97.107 resolves the issue for the test case documented in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2052842
However, I still see a regression with the following test case:
$ fallocate -l 1G /tmp/blob
$ sudo losetup $LOOPDEV /tmp/blob
$ sudo /usr/sbin/parted -s -m -a optimal $LOOPDEV -- unit KiB mklabel gpt
mkpart primary 0% 100%
Error: Partition(s) 1 on /dev/loop3 have been written, but we have been unable
to inform the kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use. As a
result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot now before
making further changes.
Expected results: parted return code is 0, partition is available at
${LOOPDEV}p1
Actual results: parted return code is 1, partition is not available at
${LOOPDEV}p1

[Impact]
* BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION on an empty loopback device used to return ENXIO
but now returns EINVAL, breaking partprobe due to commit
"block: don't add or resize partition on the disk with GENHD_FL_NO_PART"
introduced in mantic 6.5.0-17 and jammy 5.15.0-94.
[Fix]
* backport commit

[Test Plan]
* dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=50
* partprobe $(losetup --find --show /tmp/foo)
Before the fix this fails.
After the fix it should work.
[Where problems could occur]
* We may see issues on disk partitions operations.

Do this:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/file bs=1M count=50

Notice this very odd error message:

/dev/loop2 have been written, but we have been unable to inform the
kernel of the change, probably because it/they are in use. As a
result, the old partition(s) will remain in use. You should reboot
now before making further changes.
That's a result of an ioctl changing its error code in an incompatible
way between kernel versions 5.15.0.91.88 and 5.15.0.94.91, confusing
partprobe.
5.15.0.91.88:
ioctl(3, BLKPG, {op=BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION, flags=0, datalen=152, data={start=0,
length=0, pno=1, devname="", volname=""}}) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or
address)
5.15.0.94.91:
ioctl(3, BLKPG, {op=BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION, flags=0, datalen=152, data={start=0,
length=0, pno=1, devname="", volname=""}}) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
This is a userspace API break which impacts GNU parted and util-linux
(as confirmed by the util-linux maintainer).
This issue was discovered as part of Cockpit CI here:
https://github.com/cockpit-project/bots/pull/5793

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2049689] Re: partprobe is broken on empty loopback device
This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-mtk/5.15.0-1030.34
kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and
update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the
tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-mtk' to 'verification-done-jammy-
linux-mtk'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-
needed-jammy-linux-mtk' to 'verification-failed-jammy-linux-mtk'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
