MD: raid5 do not set fullsync Add check to determine if a device needs full resync or if partial resync will do RAID 5 was assuming that if a device was not In_sync, it must undergo a full resync. We add a check to see if 'saved_raid_disk' is the same as 'raid_disk'. If it is, we can safely skip the full resync and rely on the bitmap for partial recovery instead. This is the legitimate purpose of 'saved_raid_disk', from md.h: int saved_raid_disk; /* role that device used to have in the * array and could again if we did a partial * resync from the bitmap */ Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
