Can you give some examples as how to chain the right way?

BTW, for all
the io split case, should this order be fixed? I feel we should, this
disorder can happen on any stack case, where top max_sector is greater
than stacked disk.

Yes, I've been trying get Bart to fix this for a while instead of
putting in a workaround very similar to the one proposed here,
but so far nothing happened.


This feels like a really stupid fix, but wouldn't that help?

I do not understand how can this help, do you miss that submit split
instead?

And with this change, this can help, however, I think we'll still submit
the last lba bio first, like bio_last -> bio0 -> bio1 ... where the
following is sequential.

BTW, this is not just a raid5 problem, this is also possible for
raid0/10 and all other recursive split case.

Thanks,
