[ Upstream commit 73ac105be390c1de42a2f21643c9778a5e002930 ] back-end device sdm has already attached a cache_set with ID f67ebe1f-f8bc-4d73-bfe5-9dc88607f119, then try to attach with another cache set, and it returns with an error: [root]# cd /sys/block/sdm/bcache [root]# echo 5ccd0a63-148e-48b8-afa2-aca9cbd6279f > attach -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument After that, execute a command to modify the label of bcache device: [root]# echo data_disk1 > label Then we reboot the system, when the system power on, the back-end device can not attach to cache_set, a messages show in the log: Feb 5 12:05:52 ceph152 kernel: [922385.508498] bcache: bch_cached_dev_attach() couldn't find uuid for sdm in set In sysfs_attach(), dc->sb.set_uuid was assigned to the value which input through sysfs, no matter whether it is success or not in bch_cached_dev_attach(). For example, If the back-end device has already attached to an cache set, bch_cached_dev_attach() would fail, but dc->sb.set_uuid was changed. Then modify the label of bcache device, it will call bch_write_bdev_super(), which would write the dc->sb.set_uuid to the super block, so we record a wrong cache set ID in the super block, after the system reboot, the cache set couldn't find the uuid of the back-end device, so the bcache device couldn't exist and use any more. In this patch, we don't assigned cache set ID to dc->sb.set_uuid in sysfs_attach() directly, but input it into bch_cached_dev_attach(), and assigned dc->sb.set_uuid to the cache set ID after the back-end device attached to the cache set successful.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
