The patch titled md: return a non-zero error to bi_end_io as appropriate in raid5 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is md-return-a-non-zero-error-to-bi_end_io-as-appropriate-in-raid5.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: md: return a non-zero error to bi_end_io as appropriate in raid5 From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> Currently raid5 depends on clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag to signal an error to higher levels. While this should be sufficient, it is safer to explicitly set the error code as well - less room for confusion.
