Re: Subject: [PATCH] md: avoid deadlock when raid5 array has unackbadblocks during md_stop_writes.

From: y b
Date: Tue Sep 10 2013 - 03:19:58 EST


I use linux-next 2013-9-6 vesion and I can reproduce it when raid5
array rescovering, so sync_blockdev may not work.
Some disk-controller driver handle disk error in a slowerpath, may
more than 5 seconds. if shutdown or set readonly array, we can met
this situation.

the detail message when I met this situation:
