In case of using DUP, we search for enough unallocated disk space on a device to hold two stripes. The devices_info[ndevs-1].max_avail that holds the amount of unallocated space found is directly assigned to stripe_size, while it's actually twice the stripe size. Later on in the code, an unconditional division of stripe_size by dev_stripes corrects the value, but in the meantime there's a check to see if the stripe_size does not exceed max_chunk_size. Since during this check stripe_size is twice the amount as intended, the check will reduce the stripe_size to max_chunk_size if the actual correct to be used stripe_size is more than half the amount of max_chunk_size. The unconditional division later tries to correct stripe_size, but will actually make sure we can't allocate more than half the max_chunk_size. Fix this by moving the division by dev_stripes before the max chunk size check, so it always contains the right value, instead of putting a duct tape division in further on to get it fixed again. Since in all other cases than DUP, dev_stripes is 1, this change only affects DUP. Other attempts in the past were made to fix this: * |

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.
