From 90f5f7ad4f38d67626b0c220a0ac390603e0bded Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Reinecke Date: Tue, 2 Apr 2013 08:38:55 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] md: Wait for md_check_recovery before attempting device removal. When a device has failed, it needs to be removed from the personality module before it can be removed from the array as a whole. The first step is performed by md_check_recovery() which is called from the raid management thread. So when a HOT_REMOVE ioctl arrives, wait briefly for md_check_recovery to have run. This increases the chance that the ioctl will succeed.
