[PATCH 2/5] dm-raid: fix stripe adding reshape deadlock

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When initiating a stripe adding reshape, a deadlock between
md_stop_writes() waiting for the sync thread to stop and the
running sync thread waiting for inactive stripes occurs
(this frequently happens on single-core but rarely
 on multi-core systems).

Resolve by setting MD_RECOVERY_WAIT to request the main MD
resynchronization thread worker function md_do_sync() to bail
out when initiating the reshape via constructor arguments.
Don't set the flag when reloading without those arguments and
avoid superfluous mddev_{suspend,resume} setting up reshape.

Passes all lvm2 raid tests.
