From 93be75ffde6dfd1ad17cc3ff1dbd135bd711baf4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:50:06 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md: integrate spares into array at earliest opportunity. As v1.x metadata can record that a member of the array is not completely recovered, it make sense to record that a spare has become a regular member of the array at the earliest opportunity. So remove the tests on "recovery_offset > 0" in super_1_sync as they really aren't needed, and schedule a metadata update immediately after adding spares to a degraded array. This means that if a crash happens immediately after a recovery starts, the new device will be included in the array and recovery will continue from wherever it was up to. Previously this didn't happen unless recovery was at least 1/16 of the way through. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown --- Reading git-format-patch failed
