Drop md-raid5-fix-clearing-of-biofill-operations.patch and replace it
with the attached
md-raid5-not-raid6-fix-clearing-of-biofill-operations.patch (the
original sent to Neil).
The critical difference is that the replacement patch touches
handle_stripe5, not handle_stripe6. Diffing the patches shows the
changes for hunk #3:
-@@ -2903,6 +2907,13 @@ static void handle_stripe6(struct stripe
+@@ -2630,6 +2634,13 @@ static void handle_stripe5(struct stripe_head *sh)
raid5-fix-unending-write-sequence.patch is in -mm and I believe is
waiting on an Acked-by from Neil?

Thanks,

raid5: fix clearing of biofill operations
From: Dan Williams <[email protected]>
ops_complete_biofill() runs outside of spin_lock(&sh->lock) and clears the
'pending' and 'ack' bits. Since the test_and_ack_op() macro only checks
against 'complete' it can get an inconsistent snapshot of pending work.
Move the clearing of these bits to handle_stripe5(), under the lock.

These blocks were prepared to be written out, but were never handled in
ops_run_biodrain(), so they remain locked forever. The operations flags
are all clear which means handle_stripe() thinks nothing else needs to be
done.
This state suggests that the STRIPE_OP_PREXOR bit was sampled 'set' when it
should not have been. This patch cleans up cases where the code looks at
sh->ops.pending when it should be looking at the consistent stack-based
snapshot of the operations flags.
Report from Joel:
Resync done. Patch fix this bug.
