From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: NeilBrown Subject: [PATCH md 000 of 2] Introduction Date: Fri, 08 Apr 2005 11:41:46 +1000 Message-ID: <20050408113719.27541.patches@notabene> Return-path: Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Andrew Morton Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-raid.ids Two patches against 2.6.12-rc2 for md. (patches apply to 2.6.12-rc2-mm1 with various offsets). The first closes an extreme small race in md thread deregistration. This race was actually lost by someone who, due to a different bug which has since been fixed, has md threads being created and destroyed at a very high rate. The second removes a number of MD_BUG calls that that are either completely pointless, or misleading (i.e. the report a bug when it is just an unusual condition that is handled correctly).
