Ошибка device or resource busy
Часто при работе с флешками, дисками, образами или другими подобными объектами может возникать ошибка device or resource busy. Она может выводится, когда вы пытаетесь отмонтировать внешний диск, раздел, а также при попытке переместить или удалить файл.
В этой небольшой статье мы рассмотрим, почему может возникать данная ошибка, а также пути её устранения. Конечно, в случае с флешкой вы можете просто вынуть её из компьютера, но это не решение, потому что высока вероятность потерять не сохранённые данные. Есть пути обхода этой проблемы.
Что означает «device or resource busy»?
Если переводить дословно с английского, то это сообщение означает, что устройство или ресурс занято. Если объяснять более подробно — файл, который вы пытаетесь удалить или диск, который нужно отмонтировать, ещё используется одной из запущенных программ.
Это могло произойти потому, что программа ещё не завершила свою работу, зависла, возникли какие-либо проблемы в процессе её работы. Это актуально как для файлов, так и для съёмных носителей.
Как исправить device or resource busy?
Самое первое, что можно посоветовать — закрыть программы, которые могут использовать этот файл или один из файлов на съёмном носителе. Например, если сейчас воспроизводится один из видеофайлов, то проигрыватель надо закрыть. И только поле этого пробовать ещё раз выполнять операции.
Если вы не знаете какая программа мешает вам выполнить операцию, то это можно очень просто узнать с помощью команды lsof. Просто выполните её и отсейте только те записи, которые относятся к точке монтирования вашего носителя:
lsof | grep /media/sergiy/83AE-2346
Чтобы отсеять нужные процессы в самой утилите, используйте опцию +D, так даже лучше, потому что она не будет показывать системные службы, а отобразит только программу, которую надо завершить:
lsof +D /media/sergiy/83AE-2346
Теперь вы можете видеть все процессы, которые используют файлы на нашем носителе, и завершить их с помощью команды kill. В нашем случае надо завершить плеер totem с PID 5616:
Также, чтобы посмотреть, какие процессы используют файл, можно использовать команду fuser:
fuser -vm /home/sergiy/83AE-2346
Здесь вы тоже увидите всю необходимую информацию: будет отображаться пользователь, от имени которого запущен процесс. Точно так же можно его завершить:
Если вы закрыли все программы, но это не помогло, можно попытаться очистить файловый кэш системы с помощью такой команды:
sync && echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
Выводы
В этой небольшой статье мы рассмотрели, как бороться с ошибкой device or resource busy Linux. Как видите, её очень просто исправить, даже если по началу кажется, что совсем непонятно, что можно сделать.

open(2) — Linux man page
Synopsis
Description
By default, the new file descriptor is set to remain open across an execve(2) (i.e., the FD_CLOEXEC file descriptor flag described in fcntl(2) is initially disabled; the O_CLOEXEC flag, described below, can be used to change this default). The file offset is set to the beginning of the file (see lseek(2)).
A call to open() creates a new open file description, an entry in the system-wide table of open files. This entry records the file offset and the file status flags (modifiable via the fcntl(2) F_SETFL operation). A file descriptor is a reference to one of these entries; this reference is unaffected if pathname is subsequently removed or modified to refer to a different file. The new open file description is initially not shared with any other process, but sharing may arise via fork(2).
The argument flags must include one of the following access modes: O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, or O_RDWR. These request opening the file read-only, write-only, or read/write, respectively.
In addition, zero or more file creation flags and file status flags can be bitwise-or‘d in flags. The file creation flags are O_CLOEXEC, O_CREAT, O_DIRECTORY, O_EXCL, O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_TRUNC, and O_TTY_INIT. The file status flags are all of the remaining flags listed below. The distinction between these two groups of flags is that the file status flags can be retrieved and (in some cases) modified using fcntl(2). The full list of file creation flags and file status flags is as follows: O_APPEND The file is opened in append mode. Before each write(2), the file offset is positioned at the end of the file, as if with lseek(2). O_APPEND may lead to corrupted files on NFS file systems if more than one process appends data to a file at once. This is because NFS does not support appending to a file, so the client kernel has to simulate it, which can’t be done without a race condition. O_ASYNC Enable signal-driven I/O: generate a signal (SIGIO by default, but this can be changed via fcntl(2)) when input or output becomes possible on this file descriptor. This feature is only available for terminals, pseudoterminals, sockets, and (since Linux 2.6) pipes and FIFOs. See fcntl(2) for further details. O_CLOEXEC (Since Linux 2.6.23) Enable the close-on-exec flag for the new file descriptor. Specifying this flag permits a program to avoid additional fcntl(2) F_SETFD operations to set the FD_CLOEXEC flag. Additionally, use of this flag is essential in some multithreaded programs since using a separate fcntl(2) F_SETFD operation to set the FD_CLOEXEC flag does not suffice to avoid race conditions where one thread opens a file descriptor at the same time as another thread does a fork(2) plus execve(2). O_CREAT If the file does not exist it will be created. The owner (user ID) of the file is set to the effective user ID of the process. The group ownership (group ID) is set either to the effective group ID of the process or to the group ID of the parent directory (depending on file system type and mount options, and the mode of the parent directory, see the mount options bsdgroups and sysvgroups described in mount(8)).
mode specifies the permissions to use in case a new file is created. This argument must be supplied when O_CREAT is specified in flags; if O_CREAT is not specified, then mode is ignored. The effective permissions are modified by the process’s umask in the usual way: The permissions of the created file are (mode &
umask). Note that this mode only applies to future accesses of the newly created file; the open() call that creates a read-only file may well return a read/write file descriptor.
The following symbolic constants are provided for mode: S_IRWXU 00700 user (file owner) has read, write and execute permission S_IRUSR 00400 user has read permission S_IWUSR 00200 user has write permission S_IXUSR 00100 user has execute permission S_IRWXG 00070 group has read, write and execute permission S_IRGRP 00040 group has read permission S_IWGRP 00020 group has write permission S_IXGRP 00010 group has execute permission S_IRWXO 00007 others have read, write and execute permission S_IROTH 00004 others have read permission S_IWOTH 00002 others have write permission S_IXOTH 00001 others have execute permission O_DIRECT (Since Linux 2.4.10) Try to minimize cache effects of the I/O to and from this file. In general this will degrade performance, but it is useful in special situations, such as when applications do their own caching. File I/O is done directly to/from user-space buffers. The O_DIRECT flag on its own makes an effort to transfer data synchronously, but does not give the guarantees of the O_SYNC flag that data and necessary metadata are transferred. To guarantee synchronous I/O, O_SYNC must be used in addition to O_DIRECT. See NOTES below for further discussion.
A semantically similar (but deprecated) interface for block devices is described in raw(8). O_DIRECTORY If pathname is not a directory, cause the open to fail. This flag is Linux-specific, and was added in kernel version 2.1.126, to avoid denial-of-service problems if opendir(3) is called on a FIFO or tape device, but should not be used outside of the implementation of opendir(3). O_EXCL Ensure that this call creates the file: if this flag is specified in conjunction with O_CREAT, and pathname already exists, then open() will fail.
When these two flags are specified, symbolic links are not followed: if pathname is a symbolic link, then open() fails regardless of where the symbolic link points to.
In general, the behavior of O_EXCL is undefined if it is used without O_CREAT. There is one exception: on Linux 2.6 and later, O_EXCL can be used without O_CREAT if pathname refers to a block device. If the block device is in use by the system (e.g., mounted), open() fails with the error EBUSY.
On NFS, O_EXCL is only supported when using NFSv3 or later on kernel 2.6 or later. In NFS environments where O_EXCL support is not provided, programs that rely on it for performing locking tasks will contain a race condition. Portable programs that want to perform atomic file locking using a lockfile, and need to avoid reliance on NFS support for O_EXCL, can create a unique file on the same file system (e.g., incorporating hostname and PID), and use link(2) to make a link to the lockfile. If link(2) returns 0, the lock is successful. Otherwise, use stat(2) on the unique file to check if its link count has increased to 2, in which case the lock is also successful. O_LARGEFILE (LFS) Allow files whose sizes cannot be represented in an off_t (but can be represented in an off64_t) to be opened. The _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE macro must be defined (before including any header files) in order to obtain this definition. Setting the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS feature test macro to 64 (rather than using O_LARGEFILE) is the preferred method of accessing large files on 32-bit systems (see feature_test_macros(7)). O_NOATIME (Since Linux 2.6.8) Do not update the file last access time (st_atime in the inode) when the file is read(2). This flag is intended for use by indexing or backup programs, where its use can significantly reduce the amount of disk activity. This flag may not be effective on all file systems. One example is NFS, where the server maintains the access time. O_NOCTTY If pathname refers to a terminal device—see tty(4)—it will not become the process’s controlling terminal even if the process does not have one. O_NOFOLLOW If pathname is a symbolic link, then the open fails. This is a FreeBSD extension, which was added to Linux in version 2.1.126. Symbolic links in earlier components of the pathname will still be followed. O_NONBLOCK or O_NDELAY When possible, the file is opened in nonblocking mode. Neither the open() nor any subsequent operations on the file descriptor which is returned will cause the calling process to wait. For the handling of FIFOs (named pipes), see also fifo(7). For a discussion of the effect of O_NONBLOCK in conjunction with mandatory file locks and with file leases, see fcntl(2). O_SYNC The file is opened for synchronous I/O. Any write(2)s on the resulting file descriptor will block the calling process until the data has been physically written to the underlying hardware. But see NOTES below. O_TRUNC If the file already exists and is a regular file and the open mode allows writing (i.e., is O_RDWR or O_WRONLY) it will be truncated to length 0. If the file is a FIFO or terminal device file, the O_TRUNC flag is ignored. Otherwise the effect of O_TRUNC is unspecified.
Some of these optional flags can be altered using fcntl(2) after the file has been opened.
creat() is equivalent to open() with flags equal to O_CREAT|O_WRONLY|O_TRUNC.

Conforming to
The O_CLOEXEC flag is not specified in POSIX.1-2001, but is specified in POSIX.1-2008.
O_DIRECT is not specified in POSIX; one has to define _GNU_SOURCE (before including any header files) to get its definition.
Notes
Unlike the other values that can be specified in flags, the access mode values O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, and O_RDWR, do not specify individual bits. Rather, they define the low order two bits of flags, and are defined respectively as 0, 1, and 2. In other words, the combination O_RDONLY | O_WRONLY is a logical error, and certainly does not have the same meaning as O_RDWR. Linux reserves the special, nonstandard access mode 3 (binary 11) in flags to mean: check for read and write permission on the file and return a descriptor that can’t be used for reading or writing. This nonstandard access mode is used by some Linux drivers to return a descriptor that is only to be used for device-specific ioctl(2) operations.
The (undefined) effect of O_RDONLY | O_TRUNC varies among implementations. On many systems the file is actually truncated.
There are many infelicities in the protocol underlying NFS, affecting amongst others O_SYNC and O_NDELAY.
POSIX provides for three different variants of synchronized I/O, corresponding to the flags O_SYNC, O_DSYNC, and O_RSYNC. Currently (2.6.31), Linux only implements O_SYNC, but glibc maps O_DSYNC and O_RSYNC to the same numerical value as O_SYNC. Most Linux file systems don’t actually implement the POSIX O_SYNC semantics, which require all metadata updates of a write to be on disk on returning to user space, but only the O_DSYNC semantics, which require only actual file data and metadata necessary to retrieve it to be on disk by the time the system call returns.
Note that open() can open device special files, but creat() cannot create them; use mknod(2) instead.
On NFS file systems with UID mapping enabled, open() may return a file descriptor but, for example, read(2) requests are denied with EACCES. This is because the client performs open() by checking the permissions, but UID mapping is performed by the server upon read and write requests.
If the file is newly created, its st_atime, st_ctime, st_mtime fields (respectively, time of last access, time of last status change, and time of last modification; see stat(2)) are set to the current time, and so are the st_ctime and st_mtime fields of the parent directory. Otherwise, if the file is modified because of the O_TRUNC flag, its st_ctime and st_mtime fields are set to the current time.
O_direct
The O_DIRECT flag may impose alignment restrictions on the length and address of user-space buffers and the file offset of I/Os. In Linux alignment restrictions vary by file system and kernel version and might be absent entirely. However there is currently no file system-independent interface for an application to discover these restrictions for a given file or file system. Some file systems provide their own interfaces for doing so, for example the XFS_IOC_DIOINFO operation in xfsctl(3).
Under Linux 2.4, transfer sizes, and the alignment of the user buffer and the file offset must all be multiples of the logical block size of the file system. Under Linux 2.6, alignment to 512-byte boundaries suffices.
O_DIRECT I/Os should never be run concurrently with the fork(2) system call, if the memory buffer is a private mapping (i.e., any mapping created with the mmap(2) MAP_PRIVATE flag; this includes memory allocated on the heap and statically allocated buffers). Any such I/Os, whether submitted via an asynchronous I/O interface or from another thread in the process, should be completed before fork(2) is called. Failure to do so can result in data corruption and undefined behavior in parent and child processes. This restriction does not apply when the memory buffer for the O_DIRECT I/Os was created using shmat(2) or mmap(2) with the MAP_SHARED flag. Nor does this restriction apply when the memory buffer has been advised as MADV_DONTFORK with madvise(2), ensuring that it will not be available to the child after fork(2).
The O_DIRECT flag was introduced in SGI IRIX, where it has alignment restrictions similar to those of Linux 2.4. IRIX has also a fcntl(2) call to query appropriate alignments, and sizes. FreeBSD 4.x introduced a flag of the same name, but without alignment restrictions.
O_DIRECT support was added under Linux in kernel version 2.4.10. Older Linux kernels simply ignore this flag. Some file systems may not implement the flag and open() will fail with EINVAL if it is used.
Applications should avoid mixing O_DIRECT and normal I/O to the same file, and especially to overlapping byte regions in the same file. Even when the file system correctly handles the coherency issues in this situation, overall I/O throughput is likely to be slower than using either mode alone. Likewise, applications should avoid mixing mmap(2) of files with direct I/O to the same files.
The behaviour of O_DIRECT with NFS will differ from local file systems. Older kernels, or kernels configured in certain ways, may not support this combination. The NFS protocol does not support passing the flag to the server, so O_DIRECT I/O will only bypass the page cache on the client; the server may still cache the I/O. The client asks the server to make the I/O synchronous to preserve the synchronous semantics of O_DIRECT. Some servers will perform poorly under these circumstances, especially if the I/O size is small. Some servers may also be configured to lie to clients about the I/O having reached stable storage; this will avoid the performance penalty at some risk to data integrity in the event of server power failure. The Linux NFS client places no alignment restrictions on O_DIRECT I/O.
In summary, O_DIRECT is a potentially powerful tool that should be used with caution. It is recommended that applications treat use of O_DIRECT as a performance option which is disabled by default.
«The thing that has always disturbed me about O_DIRECT is that the whole interface is just stupid, and was probably designed by a deranged monkey on some serious mind-controlling substances.»—Linus
