[PATCH 4/7] md/raid5: avoid reading parity blocks for full-stripe write to degraded array

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

 



When performing a reconstruct write, we need to read all blocks
that are not being over-written .. except the parity (P and Q) blocks.

The code currently reads these (as they are not being over-written!)
unnecessarily.
