currently, md updates all superblocks (one on each device) in series. It waits for one write to complete before starting the next. This isn't a big problem as superblock updates don't happen that often. However it is neater to do it in parallel, and if the drives in the array have gone to "sleep" after a period of idleness, then waking them is parallel is faster (and someone else should be worrying about power drain). Futher, we will need parallel superblock updates for a future patch which keeps the intent-logging bitmap near the superblock. Also remove the silly code that retired superblock updates 100 times. This simply never made sense. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> |
