From 24395a85d8efe6eee477ea35c73d045a8dd7a3a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2009 14:59:27 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md: don't clear endpoint for resync when resync is interrupted. If a 'sync_max' has been set (via sysfs), it is wrong to clear it until a resync (or reshape or recovery ...) actually reached that point. So if a resync is interrupted (e.g. by device failure), leave 'resync_max' unchanged. This is particularly important for 'reshape' operations that do not change the size of the array. For such operations mdadm needs to monitor the reshape taking rolling backups of the section being reshaped. If resync_max gets cleared, the reshape can get ahead of mdadm and then the backups that mdadm creates are useless. This is suitable for 2.6.31.y stable kernels.
