Hey Kuai,
Later, I realized that mdmon is attached to various fds:
Here a mdmon code:
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, a->info.state_fd); #mddev->sysfs_state
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, a->action_fd); #mddev->sysfs_action
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, a->sync_completed_fd); #mddev->resync_position
for (mdi = a->info.devs ; mdi ; mdi = mdi->next) { #for each rdev
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, mdi->state_fd); #rdev->sysfs_state
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, mdi->bb_fd); #rdev->sysfs_badblocks
add_fd(&rfds, &maxfd, mdi->ubb_fd);
#rdev->sysfs_unack_badblocks }
Notification in rdev->sysfs_state is fine. The problem was somewhere else
(mdmon blocked on "rdev remove"). And It will be fixed by moving rdev remove to
managemon because it is blocking action now.
https://github.com/md-raid-utilities/mdadm/pull/66
I think it is fine to move this down after set_mask_bits, but we don't
have to repeat notification to mddev->state.
Thanks,
Mariusz
