Inside ublk_ctrl_del_dev(), when the device is removed, we wait until the device number is freed with holding global lock of ublk_ctl_mutex, this way isn't friendly from user viewpoint: 1) if device is in-use, the current delete command hangs in ublk_ctrl_del_dev(), and user can't break from the handling because wait_event() is used 2) global lock is held, so any new device can't be added and other old devices can't be removed. Improve the deleting handling by the following way, suggested by Nadav: 1) wait without holding the global lock 2) replace wait_event() with wait_event_interruptible() Reported-by: Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com> Suggested-by: Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230207150700.545530-1-ming.lei@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
