X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=26ac107378c4742978216be1005b7291b799c7b2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git md/raid5: Fix livelock when array is both resyncing and degraded. Commit a7854487cd7128a30a7f4f5259de9f67d5efb95f: md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write. Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded. A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data blocks, and one may be missing. Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed. So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.
