Hi Linus, please pull these fixes. I think raid5 is all working nicely again now. I think there is still a race somewhere in starting the recovery thread, but it is minor and I suspect I'll have it nailed soon. Not quite this week though. Thanks, NeilBrown The following changes since commit 8532e3439087de69bb1b71fd6be2baa6fc196a55: md/bitmap: remove rcu annotation from pointer arithmetic. (2015-05-21 09:14:41 +1000) are available in the git repository at: git://neil.brown.name/md/ tags/md/4.1-rc5-fixes for you to fetch changes up to 56ccc1125bc141cf63927eda7febff4216dea2d3: md: fix race when unfreezing sync_action (2015-05-28 18:04:45 +1000) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Assorted fixes for new RAID5 stripe-batching functionality. Unfortunately this functionality was merged a little prematurely. The necessary testing and code review is now complete (or as complete as it can be) and to code passes a variety of tests and looks quite sensible. Also a fix for some recent locking changes - a race was introduced which causes a reshape request to sometimes fail. No data safety issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------- NeilBrown (10): md/raid5: ensure whole batch is delayed for all required bitmap updates. md/raid5: close race between STRIPE_BIT_DELAY and batching. md/raid5: Ensure a batch member is not handled prematurely. md/raid5: remove condition test from check_break_stripe_batch_list. md/raid5: duplicate some more handle_stripe_clean_event code in break_stripe_batch_list md/raid5: add handle_flags arg to break_stripe_batch_list. md/raid5: be more selective about distributing flags across batch. md/raid5: call break_stripe_batch_list from handle_stripe_clean_event md/raid5: break stripe-batches when the array has failed. md: fix race when unfreezing sync_action drivers/md/md.c | 14 ++--- drivers/md/raid5.c | 146 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------- drivers/md/raid5.h | 5 +- 3 files changed, 98 insertions(+), 67 deletions(-)
