From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: NeilBrown Subject: [PATCH 000 of 4] md: Various fixes for new cache-bypassing-reads in raid5/6 Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2006 11:22:23 +1100 Message-ID: <20061114111600.31061.patches@notabene> Return-path: Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Andrew Morton Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-raid.ids The patches which enable reading from raid5 without going through the stripe cache have a bug which causes corruption when reading from a raid6. It might be appropriate to put out a hotfix for rc5-mm1 which reverts md-enable-bypassing-cache-for-reads.patch The follow 4 patches fix this bug and a few other bugs I found while re-reviewing and re-testing this code. There are actually about 9 separate bugs here, but I grouped some of them to avoid having lots of tiny patches.
