Hello.
I've a raid1 array (composed of 4 drives, so it is a 4-fold
copy of data), and one of the drives has an unreadable (bad)
sector in the partition belonging to this array.
When I run md 'repair' action, it hits the error place, the
kernel clearly returns an error, but md does not do anything
with it. For example:
Oct 21 18:43:55 mother kernel: [190018.073098] md: requested-resync of RAID array md1

There's no indication that raid code tried to re-write the bad spot,
and the bad block remains bad in the drive, so next read (direct from
the drive) return the same I/O error with the same kernel messages.
Shouldn't `repair' action re-write the problem place?
This is kernel 3.10.15.
Thank you!
