From 384d87ef2c954fc58e6c5fd8253e4a1984f5fe02 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2020 10:58:52 +0200 Subject: block: Do not discard buffers under a mounted filesystem Discarding blocks and buffers under a mounted filesystem is hardly anything admin wants to do. Usually it will confuse the filesystem and sometimes the loss of buffer_head state (including b_private field) can even cause crashes like: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 4 PID: 203778 Comm: jbd2/dm-3-8 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G O --------- - - 4.18.0-147.5.0.5.h126.eulerosv2r9.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Huawei RH2288H V3/BC11HGSA0, BIOS 1.57 08/11/2015 RIP: 0010:jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head+0x1b/0x40 [jbd2] ...

This makes sure any exclusive block device user (such as filesystem) cannot operate on the device while we are discarding buffer cache.
