From 6ebdf1c79d09ad3d65c714a79db0a0c141a013ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Haberland Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 15:04:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] s390/dasd: retry partition detection In case somebody attempted to open the device during online processing the partition detection ioctl may have failed. Added a retry loop to avoid not detected partitions.
