Add test case loop_08 to verify the ublk integrity data flow. It uses the kublk loop target to create a ublk device with integrity on top of backing data and integrity files. It then writes to the whole device with fio configured to generate integrity data. Then it reads back the whole device with fio configured to verify the integrity data. It also verifies that injected guard, reftag, and apptag corruptions are correctly detected.

I tried above setting:

However, IO error is always triggered:
[ 9202.316382] ublkb1: ref tag error at location 0 (rcvd 128) [ 9202.317171] Buffer I/O error on dev ublkb1, logical block 0, async page read
Hmm, what are the initial contents of /dev/sdc? It looks like they are nonzero, as the reftag being read for logical block 0 is 128 rather than the expected 0 (the reftag would be read from bytes 60 to 63 of /dev/sdc). In general, though, the partition scan may be expected to fail the bio-integrity-auto checks if the integrity data hasn't been initialized. I don't think this is an issue, since the partition scan is looking for a partition table but there's no guarantee that one exists. You can disable the kernel integrity checks if you want by writing 0 to /sys/block/ublkb1/integrity/read_verify. However, I'm not sure it's possible to do this soon enough to take effect before the partition scan. We could also use the UBLK_F_NO_AUTO_PART_SCAN feature, once it lands, to suppress the partition scan and these error messages.
Best, Caleb
