Hello Shaohua,

I think a user space action causes the MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN bit to be cleared.
After I had added a few debug statements in the md driver this is what I
found in the system log:

Oct 12 09:38:39 kernel: action_store: storing action check
Oct 12 09:38:39 kernel: md: data-check of RAID array md0
Oct 12 09:38:40 systemd[1]: Starting Hibernate...
Oct 12 09:38:40 kernel: md: md0: data-check interrupted.
[ powered on system manually ]
Oct 12 09:39:05 kernel: action_store: storing action check
Oct 12 09:39:05 kernel: md: data-check of RAID array md0
Oct 12 09:39:11 kernel: action_store: storing action idle
Oct 12 09:39:11 kernel: md: md0: data-check interrupted.

Anyway, how about the patch below? I have verified by adding a debug pr_info()
statement that the newly added code really clears the MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN bit.

Thanks,

Bart.


Subject: [PATCH] md: Neither resync nor reshape while the system is frozen

Some people use the md driver on laptops and use the suspend and
resume functionality. Since it is essential that submitting of
new I/O requests stops before a hibernation image is created,
interrupt the md resync and reshape actions if the system is
being frozen. Note: the resync and reshape will restart after
the system is resumed and a message similar to the following
will appear in the system log:

md: md0: data-check interrupted.
