Write back cache requires a complex RMW mechanism, where old data is read into dev->orig_page for prexor, and then xor is done with dev->page. This logic is already implemented in the write path. However, current read path is not awared of this requirement. When the array is optimal, the RMW is not required, as the data are read from raid disks. However, when the target stripe is degraded, complex RMW is required to generate right data. To keep read path as clean as possible, we handle read path by flushing degraded, in-journal stripes before processing reads to missing dev. Specifically, when there is read requests to a degraded stripe with data in journal, handle_stripe_fill() calls r5c_make_stripe_write_out() and exits. Then handle_stripe_dirtying() will do the complex RMW and flush the stripe to RAID disks. After that, read requests are handled. There is one more corner case when there is non-overwrite bio for the missing (or out of sync) dev. handle_stripe_dirtying() will not be able to process the non-overwrite bios without constructing the data in handle_stripe_fill(). This is fixed by delaying non-overwrite bios in handle_stripe_dirtying(). So handle_stripe_fill() works on these bios after the stripe is flushed to raid disks.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
