From 04e0f69d135f6cf10534282fc09cf3efd6973c5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 10:37:30 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] md/raid10: Don't try to recovery unmatched (and unused) chunks. commit fc448a18ae6219af9a73257b1fbcd009efab4a81 upstream. If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there are an odd number of devices - the last chunk has no pair and so is not mirrored. We don't store data there, but when recovering the last device in an array we retry to recover that last chunk from a non-existent location. This results in an error, and the recovery aborts. When we get to that last chunk we should just stop - there is nothing more to do anyway. This bug has been present since the introduction of RAID10, so the patch is appropriate for any -stable kernel.
