Following are 7 patches for md in 2.6.13-rc4 They are all fairly well tested, with the possible exception of '4' - I haven't actually tried throwing BIO_RW_BARRIER requests are any md devices. However the code is very straight forward. I'm happy (even keen) for these to go into 2.6.13. If it's getting a bit late, then 2 is probably the most important. The others we can probably live without. Thanks, NeilBrown [PATCH md 001 of 7] Remove a stray debugging printk. [PATCH md 002 of 7] Make 'md' and alias for 'md-mod' [PATCH md 003 of 7] Fix minor error in raid10 read-balancing calculation. [PATCH md 004 of 7] Fail IO requests to md that require a barrier. [PATCH md 005 of 7] Always honour md bitmap being read from disk [PATCH md 006 of 7] Yet another attempt to get bitmap-based resync to do the right thing in all cases... [PATCH md 007 of 7] Make sure md bitmap updates are flushed when array is stopped. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
