Re: [PATCH 3/5] md: make sure md_do_sync() will set MD_RECOVERY_DONE

Hi all

MD_RECOVERY_WAIT was introduced in d5d885fd5. From this patch,
MD_RECOVERY_WAIT only has one usage during creating raid device.
resync job needs to wait until pers->start finishes(The only place
which is checked). If we remove it from md_do_sync, will it break the
logic? Or we don't need this flag anymore? If so can we remove this
flag?

dm-raid uses this bit in patch 644e2537f (dm raid: fix stripe adding
reshape deadlock). It's the reason why md_do_sync can't set
MD_RECOVERY_DONE. Now we stop sync thread asynchronously, can we
revert this patch?

Best Regards
Xiao

stop_sync_thread() will interrupt md_do_sync(), and md_do_sync() must
set MD_RECOVERY_DONE, so that follow up md_check_recovery() will
unregister sync_thread, clear MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING and wake up
stop_sync_thread().

Before this patch, if MD_RECOVERY_WAIT is set or the array is read-only,
md_do_sync() will return without setting MD_RECOVERY_DONE, hence use
stop_sync_thread() directly will hang because md_check_recovery() can't
clear MD_RECOVERY_RUNNING, which is possible for dm-raid.
