Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

The first two patches of the set look good, so I applied them to
md-tmp-6.9 branch. However, this one needs a respin.
We are fixing dm-raid regressions, so I'll not send a new version until
that work is done. :)
Sure. Fixing the regression is more urgent.

I found prepare_to_stop_sync_thread very hard to reason. Please try to
rephrase the comment or refactor the code. Maybe it makes sense to put
the following logic and its variations to a separate function:

         if (prepare_to_stop_sync_thread(mddev, false)) {
                 wait_event(resync_wait, sync_thread_stopped(mddev, NULL));
                 mddev_lock_nointr(mddev);
         }
I can do this, but there are 5 callers and only two of them can use the
separate caller. Pehaps something like this?

void stop_sync_thread(struct mddev *mddev, bool wait_sb)
{
        if (prepare_to_stop_sync_thread(mddev, wait_sb)) {
                wait_event(resync_wait, ...);
                if (!wait_sb) {
                        mddev_lock_nointr(mddev);
                        return;
                }
        }

        if (wait_sb) {
                wait_event(sb_wait, ...);
                mddev_lock_nointr(mddev);
        }
}
I don't really like this version either. Let's think more about this
after fixing the dm-raid regressions.

Thanks,
Song
