Sometime disk could have tracks broken and data there is inaccessable, but data in other parts can be accessed in normal way. MD RAID supports such disks. But we don't have a good way to test it, because we can't control which part of a physical disk is bad. For a virtual disk, this can be easily controlled. This patch adds a new 'badblock' attribute. Configure it in this way: echo "+1-100" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [1-100] as bad blocks. echo "-20-30" > xxx/badblock, this will make sector [20-30] good If badblocks are accessed, the nullb disk will return IO error. Other parts of the disk can accessed in normal way. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>
