Subject: [54/54] md/raid1: delay reads that could overtake behind-writes.
Date: Wed, 11 Aug 2010 17:01:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100812000128.219189622@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100812000249.GA30948@kroah.com>

2.6.34-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

commit e555190d82c0f58e825e3cbd9e6ebe2e7ac713bd upstream.

When a raid1 array is configured to support write-behind
on some devices, it normally only reads from other devices.
If all devices are write-behind (because the rest have failed)
it is possible for a read request to be serviced before a
behind-write request, which would appear as data corruption.

So when forced to read from a WriteMostly device, wait for any
write-behind to complete, and don't start any more behind-writes.
