I have now committed to 4-STABLE the fixes for the RAID-5 revive corruption that I described a couple of days ago. If you're using RAID-5 on 4-STABLE or 5-CURRENT, you should upgrade to the latest versions as soon as possible. In the meantime, if a RAID-5 plex loses a subdisk, leave it like that. I'm about to commit a very large MFC to 3-STABLE. I've tested it carefully, of course, but with a total diff size of 4300 lines, it's possible that something has slipped through the cracks. I have a problem here: I can continue to test, and possibly find more bugs, but at the same time I'm withholding much-needed fixes. I'd suggest a compromise: if you're running happily with 3-STABLE and you're not using RAID-5, now is probably not the time to upgrade. If any problems do surface, let somebody else find them.
