Hello,

I am starting to dig into the Block subsystem to try and uncover the
reason for some data I lost recently.  My situation is that I have
multiple block drivers on top of each other and am wondering how the
effectss of a raid 5 rebuild would affect the block devices above it.

The layers are raid 5 -> lvm -> cryptoloop.  It seems that after the
raid 5 device was rebuilt by adding in a new disk, that the cryptoloop
doesn't have a valid ext3 partition on it.

As a raid device re-builds is there ant rearranging of sectors or
corresponding blocks that would effect another block device on top of it?

Sincerely,
Dennison Williams
