Commit 12cee5a8a29e ("md/raid1: prevent merging too large request") add
the case choose next idle in read_balance():
read_balance:
for_each_rdev
if(next_seq_sect == this_sector || dist == 0)
-> sequential reads
best_disk = disk;
if (...)
choose_next_idle = 1
continue;
for_each_rdev
-> iterate next rdev
if (pending == 0)
best_disk = disk;
-> choose the next idle disk
break;
if (choose_next_idle)
-> keep using this rdev if there are no other idle disk
contine
However, commit 2e52d449bcec ("md/raid1: add failfast handling for reads.")
remove the code:
- /* If device is idle, use it */
- if (pending == 0) {
- best_disk = disk;
- break;
- }
Hence choose next idle will never work now, fix this problem by
following:
1) don't set best_disk in this case, read_balance() will choose the best
disk after iterating all the disks;
2) add 'pending' so that other idle disk will be chosen;
3) add a new local variable 'sequential_disk' to record the disk, and if
there is no other idle disk, 'sequential_disk' will be chosen;
Fixes: 2e52d449bcec ("md/raid1: add failfast handling for reads.")
