[LU-11053] problem with loop device associated with lustre file

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Severity: 3
• Assignee: Vladimir Saveliev
• Reporter: Vladimir Saveliev

Description

lustre's file open does not bring the file size info in-core inode. losetup avoids stat for the backing lustre file before LOOP_SET_FD:

open("/mnt/lustre/ext4image", O_RDWR)    = 3
open("/dev/loop0", O_RDWR)              = 4
ioctl(4, LOOP_SET_FD, 0x3)              = 0
stat("/mnt/lustre/ext4image"...

So losetup creates block device inode with zero size which eventually leads to failure on umounting the loop device at BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh)) in submit_bh():

The modification to sanity.sh:test_54c (from Andrew Perepechko) illustrates the problem.
