Subject: [PATCH md 0 of 6] Introduction
Date: Mon, 07 Feb 2005 13:44:19 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050207133555.17870.patches@notabene> (raw)
Following are 6 patches for md in 2.6.11-rc2-mm2
I believe they are all suitable for inclusion in 2.6.11
- Fix silly bugs in version-1 superblock code (which currently is
not widely used)
- Fix possible Oops in raid_set_faulty (which is hard to trigger in
normal usage)
- Make md work better with devfs when it is compiled in.
- Fix a possible endless-resync-loop
- Removing the for loop in "copy_data" (raid5 and raid6) which caused
some copinging to be done multiple times (should be harmless, but is
a waste)
- Fix handling for overlapping requests to raid5 and raid6. -mm currently
has a patch which is even more broken than the original code. Adding
this patch fixes it up.
Thanks,
NeilBrown
