[PATCH] nbd:clear NBD_BOUND flag when NBD connection is closed

[PATCH] nbd:clear NBD_BOUND flag when NBD connection is closed

[medadyoung]

From: Medad <medadyoung@gmail.com>

    If we do NOT clear NBD_BOUND flag when NBD connection is closed,
    then the original NBD device could not be used again.

Tested on Witherspoon (OpenPOWER P9 with AST2500) and verified with
this patch that the NBD device could be disconnected/reconnected.

Tested by: Adriana Kobylak <anoo@linux.ibm.com>

This is a patch for the upstream kernel, not openbmc.

OpenBMC patches follow this process and contain the target branch they
want the maintainer to apply them to:

https://github.com/openbmc/linux/wiki/DevelopmentProcess#patch-submitters-wishing-to-have-a-change-included-through-this-process

If you want this backported to the openbmc kernel I suggest you follow
this process.

(I notice that this patch has not been accepted upstream. I suggest
you follow up on the upstream list before asking it to be submitted).

Cheers,

Joel

This doesn't sound right, this is just making sure we don't use the IOCTL
configuration stuff with the netlink stuff.  Once the disconnect happens the
configuration should go away and it doesn't matter anymore.  What are you doing
to reproduce this problem?  Thanks,

Josef

I'm not seeing an issue now that we've moved to a new version of Yocto 
containing
NBD 3.17. For reference we were reproducing by setting up a virtual 
media device
on a BMC (https://github.com/openbmc/jsnbd).
We can close this patch request unless Medad still sees an issue in his 
environment.
