In release_stripe_plug(), if a stripe_head has its STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST set, it indicates that this stripe_head is already in the raid5_plug_cb list and release_stripe() would be called instead to drop a reference count. Otherwise, the STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST bit would be set for this stripe_head and it will get queued into the raid5_plug_cb list. Since break_stripe_batch_list() did not preserve STRIPE_ON_UNPLUG_LIST, A stripe could be re-added to plug list while it is still on that list in the following situation. If stripe_head A is added to another stripe_head B's batch list, in this case A will have its batch_head != NULL and be added into the plug list. After that, stripe_head B gets handled and called break_stripe_batch_list() to reset all the batched stripe_head(including A which is still on the plug list)'s state and reset their batch_head to NULL. Before the plug list gets processed, if there is another write request comes in and get stripe_head A, A will have its batch_head == NULL (cleared by calling break_stripe_batch_list() on B) and be added to plug list once again.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
