When write bio return error, it would be added to conf->retry_list and wait for raid1d thread to retry write and acknowledge badblocks. In narrow_write_error(), the error bio will be split in the unit of badblock shift (such as one sector) and raid1d thread issues them one by one. Until all of the splited bio has finished, raid1d thread can go on processing other things, which is time consuming. But, there is a scene for error handling that is not necessary. When the device has been set faulty, flush_bio_list() may end bios in pending_bio_list with error status. Since these bios has not been issued to the device actually, error handlding to retry write and acknowledge badblocks make no sense. Even without that scene, when the device is faulty, badblocks info can not be written out to the device. Thus, we also no need to handle the error IO.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
