X-Git-Tag: v2.6.37-rc6~7^2~1 X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a855a0606;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git md: fix bug with re-adding of partially recovered device. With v0.90 metadata, a hot-spare does not become a full member of the array until recovery is complete. So if we re-add such a device to the array, we know that all of it is as up-to-date as the event count would suggest, and so it a bitmap-based recovery is possible. However with v1.x metadata, the hot-spare immediately becomes a full member of the array, but it record how much of the device has been recovered. If the array is stopped and re-assembled recovery starts from this point. When such a device is hot-added to an array we currently lose the 'how much is recovered' information and incorrectly included it as a full in-sync member (after bitmap-based fixup). This is wrong and unsafe and could corrupt data. So be more careful about setting saved_raid_disk - which is what guides the re-adding of devices back into an array. The new code matches the code in slot_store which does a similar thing, which is encouraging. This is suitable for any -stable kernel.
