RoyK: Okay, so it turns out we already have this patch in the precise and utopic trees from upstream stable, and it's on its way to trusty via upstream stable.
That only leaves lucid, which should also receive this fix via upstream stable in the future. 2.6.32 requires a backport which I'm unequipped to test. Unless you're able to test the lucid backport for me I'm inclined to just wait for this to filter down from upstream stable, given that lucid has been around for 4+ years without anyone reporting problems (to my knowledge at least). ** Changed in: mdadm (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1364091 Title: Possible RAID-6 corruption Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: It seems there's a bug in newer kernels that may lead to corruption on RAID-6.
