raid0_make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or biggerthan

From: Måns Rullgård

I'm using Linux 2.6.0 on an Alpha SX164 machine. Using four ATA
disks, hd[egik], on a Highpoint hpt374 controller, I created two raid0
arrays from hd[eg]1 and hd[ik]1, md0 and md1. From these, I created a
raid1 mirror, md4, on which I created an XFS filesystem. For various
reasons, I first ran md4 with only md0 as a member and filled it with
some files, all going well. Then, I added md1, and it was synced
properly. Now, I can mount md4 without problems. However, when I
read things, I get this in the kernel log:

raid0_make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 32k 439200 32
raid1: Disk failure on md1, disabling device.

raid1: md0: redirecting sector 439264 to another mirror
raid0_make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 32k 439264 24

It's always md1 that fails this way. Mounting md0 or md1 works fine.

I noticed that in raid0.c, just before the place it fails there is a
comment /* Sanity check -- queue functions should prevent this
happening */. Apparently raid1 is misbehaving here. Any quick fix?

FWIW, hdi is slightly different from the other disks, see the dmesg
output below.
