Subject: Pausing md check hangs
Date: Mon, 27 Jan 2020 11:52:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01ea67c2-244c-0427-0be7-c565fac97092@icdsoft.com> (raw)

Hi,

I posted a kernel bug about this a month ago but it did not receive any 
attention: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205929
Here is a copy of the bug report and I hope that this is the correct 
place to discuss this:

I have a Supermicro server with 10 md raid6 arrays each consisting of 8 SATA drives. SATA drives are Hitachi/HGST Ultrastar 7K4000 8T.
When i try to pause array check with "echo idle > "/sys/block/<md_dev>/md/sync_action" it randomly hangs at different md device.
Process "mdX_raid6" is at 100% cpu usage. cat /sys/block/mdX/md/journal_mode hungs forever.

Here is the state at the moment of crash for one of the md devices:

root@supermicro:/sys/block/mdX/md# find -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type f|sort|grep -v journal_mode|xargs -r egrep .
