When a read request, which bypassed the cache, fails, we need to retry it through the cache. This involves attaching it to a sequence of stripe_heads, and it may not be possible to get all the stripe_heads we need at once. We do what we can, and record how far we got in ->bi_phys_segments so we can pick up again later. There is only ever one bio which may have a non-zero offset stored in ->bi_phys_segments, the one that is either active in the single thread which calls retry_aligned_read(), or is in conf->retry_read_aligned waiting for retry_aligned_read() to be called again. So we only need to store one offset value. This can be in a local variable passed between remove_bio_from_retry() and retry_aligned_read(), or in the r5conf structure next to the ->retry_read_aligned pointer. Storing it there allows the last usage of ->bi_phys_segments to be removed from md/raid5.c. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com>
