Subject: [PATCH] md:raid1: fix a dead loop when read from a WriteMostly disk
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2016 19:18:32 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458559112-27683-1-git-send-email-fangwei1@huawei.com> (raw)
If first_bad == this_sector when we get the WriteMostly disk
in read_balance(), valid disk will be returned with zero
max_sectors. It'll lead to a dead loop in make_request(), and
OOM will happen because of endless allocation of struct bio.
Since we can't get data from this disk in this case, so
continue for another disk.
