From 43220aa0f22cd3ce5b30246d50ccd696d119edea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 12:49:14 +1000 Subject: md/raid5: fix a hang on device failure. Waiting for a 'blocked' rdev to become unblocked in the raid5d thread cannot work with internal metadata as it is the raid5d thread which will clear the blocked flag. This wasn't a problem in 3.0 and earlier as we only set the blocked flag when external metadata was used then. However we now set it always, so we need to be more careful.
