Hello!

I'm expirencing strange problems on my server running Software RAID1 (Mirroring) under
the Linux kernel 2.6.10. It works nicely under Linux 2.4.18!

Configuration:
~ Athlon 1.5GHz, 256MB RAM (tested!)
~ 2x160GB Harddisks (same type) on different IDE controllers
~  (ext3 fs with journalling turned on)
~ Swap is turned off
~ Linux Kernel 2.6.10 (vanilla) without SMP, Preemption turned off

Test case:
~ dd if=/dev/zero of=test0 bs=1M count=300
~ while :; do cp test0 test1; cp test1 test2; cp test2 test0; od test0; done

Error:
~ On Linux 2.4.18 it worked serveral hours perfectly (until I stopped it...)
~ On Linux 2.6.10 after some minutes the following (or similar) error occures:


EXT3-fs error (device md5): ext3_free_blocks_sb: bit already cleared for block 1303980
Aborting journal on device md5.
ext3_abort called.

After this I have to do a filesystem check and the 2.4.18 kernel reports a dirty RAID and
starts the resync...


Does anybody have an idea?
What's the cause of this???

Is there an known bug in the 2.6.10?
Is the Software RAID in the 2.6 series stable?

Any special kernel compile options not to use when using RAID?
Any other (better) test to do?

Regards
~ Sven
