ublk: support device recovery without I/O queueing
ublk currently supports the following behaviors on ublk server exit: A: outstanding I/Os get errors, subsequently issued I/Os get errors B: outstanding I/Os get errors, subsequently issued I/Os queue C: outstanding I/Os get reissued, subsequently issued I/Os queue and the following behaviors for recovery of preexisting block devices by a future incarnation of the ublk server: 1: ublk devices stopped on ublk server exit (no recovery possible) 2: ublk devices are recoverable using start/end_recovery commands The userspace interface allows selection of combinations of these behaviors using flags specified at device creation time, namely: default behavior: A + 1 UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY: B + 2 UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY|UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY_REISSUE: C + 2 The behavior A + 2 is currently unsupported. Add support for this behavior under the new flag combination UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY|UBLK_F_USER_RECOVERY_FAIL_IO. Signed-off-by:Uday Shankar <ushankar@purestorage.com> Reviewed-by:
