Subject: [RHEL7.7 PATCH 16/24] Fix reshape for decreasing data offset
|
||
|
|
||
|
...when not changing the number of disks.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This patch needs context to explain. These are the relevant parts of
|
||
|
the original code (condensed and annotated):
|
||
|
|
||
|
if (dir > 0) {
|
||
|
/* Increase data offset (reshape backwards) */
|
||
|
if (data_offset < sd->data_offset + min) {
|
||
|
pr_err("--data-offset too small on %s\n",
|
||
|
dn);
|
||
|
goto release;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
} else {
|
||
|
/* Decrease data offset (reshape forwards) */
|
||
|
if (data_offset < sd->data_offset - min) {
|
||
|
pr_err("--data-offset too small on %s\n",
|
||
|
dn);
|
||
|
goto release;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
When this code is reached, mdadm has already decided on a reshape
|
||
|
direction. When increasing the data offset, the reshape runs backwards
|
||
|
(dir==1); when decreasing the data offset, the reshape runs forwards
|
||
|
(dir==-1).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The conditional within the backwards reshape is correct: the requested
|
||
|
offset must be larger than the old offset plus a minimum delta; thus the
|
||
|
reshape has room to work.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For the forwards reshape, the requested offset needs to be smaller than
|
||
|
the old offset minus a minimum delta; to do this correctly, the
|
||
|
comparison must be reversed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also update the error message.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: I have tested this change on a RAID 5 on Linux 4.18.0 and verified
|
||
|
that there were no errors from the kernel and that the device data
|
||
|
remained intact. I do not know if there are considerations for different
|
||
|
RAID levels.
