From 4e5314b56a7ea11c7a5f2b8418992b2f49648a25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2005 21:39:22 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] md: better handling of readerrors with raid5. This patch changes the behaviour of raid5 when it gets a read error. Instead of just failing the device, it tried to find out what should have been there, and writes it over the bad block. For some media-errors, this has a reasonable chance of fixing the error. If the write succeeds, and a subsequent read succeeds as well, raid5 decided the address is OK and conitnues. Instead of failing a drive on read-error, we attempt to re-write the block, and then re-read. If that all works, we allow the device to remain in the array.
