[PATCH] virtio-blk: handle block_device_operations callbacks after hot unplug
From: Stefan Hajnoczi
Date: Thu Apr 23 2020 - 08:37:31 EST
A virtio_blk block device can still be referenced after hot unplug by
userspace processes that hold the file descriptor. In this case
virtblk_getgeo() can be invoked after virtblk_remove() was called. For
example, a program that has /dev/vdb open can call ioctl(HDIO_GETGEO)
after hot unplug.
Fix this by clearing vblk->disk->private_data and checking that the
virtio_blk driver instance is still around in virtblk_getgeo().
Note that the virtblk_getgeo() function itself is guaranteed to remain
in memory after hot unplug because the virtio_blk module refcount is
still held while a block device reference exists.
