Hmm ... I must be crackers at 7.39 in the morning. Surely if the bio
is not uptodate but the read attampt's time is not yet up, we don't want
to tell the master bio that the io was successful (the "else")! That
should have read "if if", not "if and". I.e.
- if (!uptodate)
- md_error(r1_bio->mddev, conf->mirrors[mirror].rdev);
- else
+ update_head_pos(mirror, r1_bio);
+ if ((r1_bio->cmd == READ) || (r1_bio->cmd == READA)) {

So if the bio is not uptodate we just drop through (after decrementing
the count on the master) into the existing code which checks this
bio uptodateness and sends a retry if it is not good. Yep.
I'll send out another patch later, with rewrite on read fail too. When
I've woken up.
