[dm-devel] [PATCH 1/5] dm-raid: fix reshape race on small devices

Wed Sep 5 17:36:41 UTC 2018


This race does not occur with usual raid device sizes but
with small ones (e.g. those created by the lvm2 test suite).

Race scenario:

Loading a new mapping table, the dm-raid target's constructor
retrieves the volatile reshaping state from the raid superblocks.

When the new table is activated in a following resume, the actual
reshape position is retrieved.  The reshape driven by the previous
mapping can already have finished on small and/or fast devices thus
updating raid superblocks about the new raid layout.

This causes the actual array state (e.g. stripe size reshape finished)
to be inconsistent with the one in the new mapping causing hangs with
left behind devices.

Fix by keeping the array frozen until the reloaded table is resumed.

Whilst on this, add/fix comments.
