Only one kind. Kernel requests :). They come in read and write flavours (let's forget about the third race for the moment). > Also, there's been relatively recent changes to this code: > http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-raid&m=108075865413863&w=2 That's 2004 and is about the inclusion of the bitmapping code into md/raid. We're years beyond there. What I'm talking about presupposes all those changes in the raid layers, and laments that it's still missing one more thing that was in the FR1/5 patches .. namely the ability for the underlying device to communicate with the md layer about its state of health, taking itself in and out of the array as appropriate.
