This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled md/raid0: update queue parameter in a safer location. to the 4.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: md-raid0-update-queue-parameter-in-a-safer-location.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 199dc6ed5179251fa6158a461499c24bdd99c836 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2015 13:11:47 +1000 Subject: md/raid0: update queue parameter in a safer location. From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxxx> commit 199dc6ed5179251fa6158a461499c24bdd99c836 upstream. When a (e.g.) RAID5 array is reshaped to RAID0, the updating of queue parameters (e.g. max number of sectors per bio) is done in the wrong place. It should be part of ->run, but it is actually part of ->takeover. This means it happens before level_store() calls: blk_set_stacking_limits(&mddev->queue->limits); and so it ineffective. This can lead to errors from underlying devices. So move all the relevant settings out of create_stripe_zones() and into raid0_run(). As this can lead to a bug-on it is suitable for any -stable kernel which supports reshape to RAID0. So 2.6.35 or later. As the bug has been present for five years there is no urgency, so no need to rush into -stable.
