From 00edaf70ad302a53f3f4a83055c89c2dd630a232 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Martin K. Petersen" Date: Mon, 20 May 2019 10:57:18 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when re-reading partition" commit 8acf608e602f6ec38b7cc37b04c80f1ce9a1a6cc upstream. This reverts commit 20bd1d026aacc5399464f8328f305985c493cde3. This patch introduced regressions for devices that come online in read-only state and subsequently switch to read-write. Given how the partition code is currently implemented it is not possible to persist the read-only flag across a device revalidate call. This may need to get addressed in the future since it is common for user applications to proactively call BLKRRPART. Reverting this commit will re-introduce a regression where a device-initiated revalidate event will cause the admin state to be forgotten. A separate patch will address this issue.
