This bug is awaiting verification that the 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-
hirsute' to 'verification-done-hirsute'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-hirsute' to 'verification-failed-
hirsute'.

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!

  Hot-unplug of disks leaves broken block devices around in Hirsute on

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  [Impact]

  Hot removal of disks under kvm on s390 does not result in the kernel
  removing the block device, which can lead to hung tasks and other
  issues.

  [Test Plan]

  See steps to reproduce the bug in the original description below. To
  test, execute these steps and confirm that the block device gets
  removed as expected.

  [Where problems could occur]

  The fix is a revert of the changes which introduced this regression.
  The original commit was a removal of supposedly unused code, but it
  seems a mistake was made in the logic around unregistering of disks.
  Reverting the changes could have potential to introduce bugs related
  to other virt devices, especially if it interacts badly with
  subsequent driver changes. However, the patch reverted cleanly, and
  reverting restores the code to the state which has been working well
  in previous kernels and seems like the lowest risk option until a
  proper fix is available upstream.

  Repro:
  #1 Get a guest
  $ uvt-kvm create --disk 5  --password=ubuntu h release=hirsute arch=s390x 
label=daily
  $ uvt-kvm wait h release=hirsute arch=s390x label=daily

  #2 Attach and Detach disk
  $ sudo qemu-img create -f qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow2 10M
  $ virsh attach-disk h /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow2 vdc
  $ virsh detach-disk h vdc

  From libvirts POV it is gone at this point
  $ virsh domblklist h
   Target   Source
  ------------------------------------------------------------------
   vda      /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/hirsute-2nd-zfs.qcow
   vdb      /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/hirsute-2nd-zfs-ds.qcow

  But the guest thinks still it is present
  $ uvt-kvm ssh --insecure hirsute-2nd-zfs lsblk
    ...
    vdc    252:32   0   20M  0 disk

  This even remains a while after (not a race).

  Any access to it in the guest will hang (as you'd expect of a non-existing 
blockdev)
  4     0    1758    1739  20   0  12140  4800 -      S+   pts/0      0:00  |   
        \_ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc
  4     0    1759    1758  20   0   6924  1044 -      D+   pts/0      0:00  |   
            \_ mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc

  The result above was originally found with hirsute-guest@hirsute-host
  on s390x

  I do NOT see the same with  groovy-guest@hirsute-host on s390x
  I DO see the same with hirsute-guest@groovy-host on s390x
    => Guest version dependent not Host/Hipervisor dependent
  I DO see the same with ZFS disks AND LVM disks being added&removed
    => not type dependent
  I do NOT see the same on x86.
    => Arch dependent ??

  ... the evidence slowly points towards an issue in the guest, damn we are so
  close to release - but non-fully detaching disks are critical in my POV :-/

  Filing this as-is for awareness, but certainly this will need more debugging.
  Unsure where this is going to eventually I'll now file it for 
kernel/udev/systemd.
  If there are any known issues/components that are related let me know please!
