[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/5] nbd/server: fix sparse read
Posted by Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 7 years, 11 months ago
In case of io error in nbd_co_send_sparse_read we should not
"goto reply:", as it is fatal error and common behavior is
disconnect in this case. We should not try to send client an
error reply, representing channel-io error on previous try to
send a reply.

Fix this by handle block-status error in nbd_co_send_sparse_read,
so nbd_co_send_sparse_read fails only on io error. Then just skip
common "reply:" code path in nbd_trip.

Not a problem, I know English is not your native tongue, so I don't mind 
touching it up, and I already admire your efforts at programming in a 
second language (a skill I lack).

The comment tail */ usually gets its own line.

Here's what I used:

/* Do a sparse read and send the structured reply to the client.
  * Returns -errno if sending fails. bdrv_block_status_above() failure is
  * reported to the client, at which point this function succeeds.
  */

I had to double-check block/io.c, but it looks like 
bdrv_block-status_above() does indeed document a return of negative 
errno on failure.  (My suspicion is that the documentation might be 
wrong, because I did not audit error returns when doing my byte-based 
work; but a quick audit of a couple of random drivers shows that at 
least iscsi.c and qed.c appear to comply.)

I wonder if a separate patch should clean this up to let 
nbd_co_send_structured_error() do message formatting (making it varargs) 
- but doesn't affect this patch.

With grammar tweaks,
