Well ok, though a regular mailinglist makes it rather hard to get an overview for non-devs, and reporting involves receiving unrelated messages. > This really needs to be fixed by cleaning up the bio path so that big bios > are split by the device that needs the split, not be the fs sending the > bio.

MD could save the max_sectors default limit for arrays. If the array is modified and the new limit gets smaller, postpone the sync until the next assembe/restart. And of course print a message if postponing, that explains when --force would be save. What ever that would be: no block device abstraction layer (device mapper, lvm, luks,...) between an unmounted? ext, fat?, ...? filesystem and md? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
