Subject: [PATCH] rnbd: fix compilation error when CONFIG_MODULES is disabled
Date: Thu, 21 May 2020 20:59:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200521185909.457245-1-danil.kipnis@cloud.ionos.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ca0729a1-2e4d-670d-2519-a175b3035b28@infradead.org>

module_is_live function is only defined when CONFIG_MODULES is enabled.
Use try_module_get instead to check whether the module is being removed.

When module unload and manuall unmapping is happening in parallel, we can
try removing the symlink twice: rnbd_client_exit vs. rnbd_clt_unmap_dev_store.

This is probably not the best way to deal with this race in general, but for
now this fixes the compilation issue when CONFIG_MODULES is disabled and has
no functional impact. Regression tests passed.

Fixes: 1eb54f8f5dd8 ("block/rnbd: client: sysfs interface functions")
