Which shouldn't it be frozen or something like that? Also md127_raid6 task is using 100% cpu. I was going to paste the assemble output, but hit clear instead of copy. It didn't show any errors I saw, just starting with 6 drives. reshape isn't using any cpu If I do a cat of /proc/pid/stack, all I get is [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff Should I just let it run?
