From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2015 01:48:52 +0000 (+1000) Subject: md/raid1: extend spinlock to protect raid1_end_read_request against inconsistencies X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v4.3/fixes-merge-window~137^2~2 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=423f04d63cf421ea436bcc5be02543d549ce4b28;p=pandora-kernel.git md/raid1: extend spinlock to protect raid1_end_read_request against inconsistencies raid1_end_read_request() assumes that the In_sync bits are consistent with the ->degaded count. raid1_spare_active updates the In_sync bit before the ->degraded count and so exposes an inconsistency, as does error() So extend the spinlock in raid1_spare_active() and error() to hide those inconsistencies. This should probably be part of Commit: 34cab6f42003 ("md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from last working device'.") as it addresses the same issue. It fixes the same bug and should go to -stable for same reasons. Fixes: 76073054c95b ("md/raid1: clean up read_balance.")
