Hi Jens, Please consider pulling the following fixes for md-6.8 on top of your block-6.8 branch. This set fixes two issues: 1. dmraid regression since 6.7 kernels. This issue was initially reported in [1]. This set of fix has been reviewed and tested by md and dm folks. 2. raid5 hang since 6.7 kernel, reported in [2]. We haven't got a better fix for this issue yet. This revert is a workaround. It has been applied to 6.7 stable kernels [3], and proved to be affective. We will look more into this issue for a better fix. We understand this is really last minute for the 6.8 release. But based on the data we have, these changes are safe and fix issues in the 6.8 kernel. Thanks, Song [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-raid/e5e8afe2-e9a8-49a2-5ab0-958d4065c55e@xxxxxxxxxx/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-raid/20240123005700.9302-1-dan@xxxxxxxx/ [3] 87165c64fe1a in linux-6.7.y branch.
