Subject: [PATCH] md: handle writes to broken raid10 arrays gracefully
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2007 16:44:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1185547475.25852.5.camel@confield.dd.xiranet.com> (raw)

When writing to a broken array, raid10 currently happily emits empty bio
lists. IOW, the master bio will never be completed, sending writers to
UNINTERRUPTIBLE_SLEEP forever.

Signed-off-by: Arne Redlich <agr@powerkom-dd.de>
