Folks,

I've finally gotten around to trying out 2.6.0-test5 with some automatic
multipathing code on which I am working.  The code automatically
determines and configures multiple paths to a device using the MD
driver.

My program works fine on 2.4.x + qlogic FC driver but not on 2.6.0-test5
with qlogic FC driver.  The qlogic FC driver works for the individual
drives, so it is less likely the cuase of the problem.

The mdstat looks like this:
root@192.168.1.95:~# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid5] [multipath]
md254 : active multipath sdb[1] sdd[0]
      1000000 blocks [2/2] [UU]

md255 : active multipath sda[1] sdc[0]
      1000000 blocks [2/2] [UU]

unused devices: <none>

I attempted a mke2fs /dev/md254 (which is the multipath device) and the
process froze.  Looking at varlogmessages, I see:

Should this work or is multipath known broken in 2.6?  Anyone have
started debugging multipath and want to work together on it?

Thanks
