From 34e97f170149bfa14979581c4c748bc9b4b79d5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 12:14:14 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] md/raid1: count resync requests in nr_pending. Both normal IO and resync IO can be retried with reschedule_retry() and so be counted into ->nr_queued, but only normal IO gets counted in ->nr_pending. Before the recent improvement to RAID1 resync there could only possibly have been one or the other on the queue. When handling a read failure it could only be normal IO. So when handle_read_error() called freeze_array() the fact that freeze_array only compares ->nr_queued against ->nr_pending was safe. But now that these two types can interleave, we can have both normal and resync IO requests queued, so we need to count them both in nr_pending. This error can lead to freeze_array() hanging if there is a read error, so it is suitable for -stable.
