[ Upstream commit bda3153998f3eb2cafa4a6311971143628eacdbc ] During assemble, the spare marked for replacement is not checked. conf->fullsync cannot be updated to be 1. As a result, recovery will treat it as a clean array. All recovering sectors are skipped. Original device is replaced with the not-recovered spare. mdadm -C /dev/md0 -l10 -n4 -pn2 /dev/loop[0123] mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/loop4 mdadm /dev/md0 --replace /dev/loop0 mdadm -S /dev/md0 # stop array during recovery mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/loop[01234] After reassemble, you can see recovery go on, but it completes immediately. In fact, recovery is not actually processed. To solve this problem, we just add the missing logics for replacment spares. (In raid1.c or raid5.c, they have already been checked.)

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.
