There is no direct mechanism to determine raid failure outside
personality. It is done by checking rdev->flags after executing
md_error(). If "faulty" flag is not set then -EBUSY is returned to
userspace. -EBUSY means that array will be failed after drive removal.
Mdadm has special routine to handle the array failure and it is executed
if -EBUSY is returned by md.
There are at least two known reasons to not consider this mechanism
as correct:
1. drive can be removed even if array will be failed[1].
2. -EBUSY seems to be wrong status. Array is not busy, but removal
process cannot proceed safe.
-EBUSY expectation cannot be removed without breaking compatibility
with userspace. In this patch first issue is resolved by adding support
for MD_BROKEN flag for RAID1 and RAID10. Support for RAID456 is added in
next commit.
The idea is to set the MD_BROKEN if we are sure that raid is in failed
state now. This is done in each error_handler(). In md_error() MD_BROKEN
flag is checked. If is set, then -EBUSY is returned to userspace.
As in previous commit, it causes that #mdadm --set-faulty is able to
fail array. Previously proposed workaround is valid if optional
functionality[1] is disabled.
