Update of sr #110102 (project parted):
Status: None => Wont Do
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
I don't think it's a good idea to implement something like this in parted. It
would also be complicated by the fact that udev is monitoring the open/close
and will trigger a reread of the partition table. Thanks for the suggestion
though.

Details:
Dear parted developers,
When I encountered some bugs (or FAD's, because they come from parted itself)
in ansible's parted module (see
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63676), I came up with idea that
they could be solved very easily if parted had an option enabling "no commit"
mode, that is: only editing partition table on disk, without signaling the
kernel to update partition info.
Currently, parted script stops at the first command which fails on
ped_disk_commit_to_os(). My idea is: make commit_to_os optional
(alternatively: delay commit_to_os() call after last command in script, so
"failed to re-read the partition table" won't stop parted from executing all
script.
What's your opinion about this? If you give me a green light, I'd dust off my
C writting skills and submit a patch for evaulation.
With kind regards,
Robert Osowiecki
