null_blk: Fix the description of the cache_size module argument

2025-10-15T09:56:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7942b226e6b84df13b46b76c01d3b6e07a1b349e ] When executing modinfo null_blk, there is an error in the description of module parameter mbps, and the output information of cache_size is incomplete.The output of modinfo before and after applying this patch is as follows: Before: [...] parm: cache_size:ulong [...] parm: mbps:Cache size in MiB for memory-backed device. Default: 0 (none) (uint) [...] After: [...] parm: cache_size:Cache size in MiB for memory-backed device. Default: 0 (none) (ulong) [...] parm: mbps:Limit maximum bandwidth (in MiB/s). Default: 0 (no limit) (uint) [...] Fixes: 058efe000b31 ("null_blk: add module parameters for 4 options") Signed-off-by: Genjian Zhang Reviewed-by: Damien Le Moal Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

null_blk: Fix return value of nullb_device_power_store()

2024-11-22T14:37:35+00:00

commit d9ff882b54f99f96787fa3df7cd938966843c418 upstream. When powering on a null_blk device that is not already on, the return value ret that is initialized to be count is reused to check the return value of null_add_dev(), leading to nullb_device_power_store() to return null_add_dev() return value (0 on success) instead of "count". So make sure to set ret to be equal to count when there are no errors.

null_blk: Do not allow runt zone with zone capacity smaller then zone size

2024-07-11T10:47:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit b164316808ec5de391c3e7b0148ec937d32d280d ] A zoned device with a smaller last zone together with a zone capacity smaller than the zone size does make any sense as that does not correspond to any possible setup for a real device: 1) For ZNS and zoned UFS devices, all zones are always the same size. 2) For SMR HDDs, all zones always have the same capacity. In other words, if we have a smaller last runt zone, then this zone capacity should always be equal to the zone size. Add a check in null_init_zoned_dev() to prevent a configuration to have both a smaller zone size and a zone capacity smaller than the zone size.

null_blk: don't cap max_hw_sectors to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS

[ Upstream commit 9a9525de865410047fa962867b4fcd33943b206f ] null_blk has some rather odd capping of the max_hw_sectors value to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS, which doesn't make sense - max_hw_sector is the hardware limit, and BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS despite the confusing name is the default cap for the max_sectors field used for normal file system I/O. Remove all the capping, and simply leave it to the block layer or user to take up or not all of that for file system I/O.
