After creating a raid array on top of a imsm container. Try to grow the chunk size and the reshape will hang with zero progress. The reason is the computation of sync_max_to_set value: if (before_data_disks <= data_disks) sync_max_to_set = sra->reshape_progress / data_disks; else sync_max_to_set = (sra->component_size * data_disks - sra->reshape_progress) / data_disks; Can produce a zero result. Which is then used to set the maximum sync value, causing zero progress to the reshape. The change is to test if the sync_max_to_set value is zero. And if so, set the sysfs sync_max to "max". Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a container and RAID0 array mdadm -CR /dev/md/imsm -e imsm -n2 /dev/nvme0n1 /dev/nvme1n1 mdadm -CR /dev/md/vol -l0 --chunk=16 -n2 /dev/nvme0n1 /dev/nvme1n1 2. Wait for resync 3. Try to grow the chunk size mdadm --grow /dev/md/vol --chunk=256 Signed-off-by: Nigel Croxon <ncroxon@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Grow.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Grow.c b/Grow.c index 0f07a894..6c5021bc 100644 --- a/Grow.c +++ b/Grow.c @@ -943,7 +943,7 @@ int start_reshape(struct mdinfo *sra, int already_running, if (!already_running) sysfs_set_num(sra, NULL, "sync_min", sync_max_to_set); - if (st->ss->external) + if (sync_max_to_set) err = err ?: sysfs_set_num(sra, NULL, "sync_max", sync_max_to_set); else err = err ?: sysfs_set_str(sra, NULL, "sync_max", "max"); -- 2.31.1
