There is no direct mechanism to determine raid failure outside
personality. It is done by checking rdev->flags after executing
md_error(). If "faulty" flag is not set then -EBUSY is returned to
userspace. -EBUSY means that array will be failed after drive removal.
Mdadm has special routine to handle the array failure and it is executed
if -EBUSY is returned by md.
There are at least two known reasons to not consider this mechanism
as correct:
1. drive can be removed even if array will be failed[1].
2. -EBUSY seems to be wrong status. Array is not busy, but removal
process cannot proceed safe.
-EBUSY expectation cannot be removed without breaking compatibility
with userspace. In this patch first issue is resolved by adding support
for MD_BROKEN flag for RAID1 and RAID10. Support for RAID456 is added in
next commit.
The idea is to set the MD_BROKEN if we are sure that raid is in failed
state now. This is done in each error_handler(). In md_error() MD_BROKEN
flag is checked. If is set, then -EBUSY is returned to userspace.
As in previous commit, it causes that #mdadm --set-faulty is able to
fail array. Previously proposed workaround is valid if optional
functionality[1] is disabled.

RAID1/RAID10.")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
