From 462763212dd71c41f092b48eaa352bc1f5ed5d66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mikulas Patocka Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2024 15:56:18 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert: "dm-verity: restart or panic on an I/O error" This reverts commit e6a3531dd542cb127c8de32ab1e54a48ae19962b. The problem that the commit e6a3531dd542cb127c8de32ab1e54a48ae19962b fixes was reported as a security bug, but Google engineers working on Android and ChromeOS didn't want to change the default behavior, they want to get -EIO rather than restarting the system, so I am reverting that commit. Note also that calling machine_restart from the I/O handling code is potentially unsafe (the reboot notifiers may wait for the bio that triggered the restart), but Android uses the reboot notifiers to store the reboot reason into the PMU microcontroller, so machine_restart must be used.
