OK, I was asking because bdrv_close() was invoked directly by the ejection code until recently and thought that maybe you were referring to that, and that there might have been a way for I/O to spill to the new medium if one issued a change command. >>> Use a drained section to ensure >>> that all I/O goes to either the old medium or the bitbucket. >> >> Since the BDS will be deleted after bdrv_close() has been called, where >> else would the I/O go now? > > The ioeventfd could be processed during bs->drv->bdrv_close.

Ah, OK, so you meant “Either all or no I/O should go to the medium”, I thought it was about the fact that I/O might go somewhere else than the old medium or /dev/null (e.g. the new medium in case of a change).
