The issue
addressed by PPL is that after a dirty shutdown, parity of a particular stripe
may become inconsistent with data on other member disks. If the array is also
in degraded state, there is no way to recalculate parity, because one of the
disks is missing. This can lead to silent data corruption when rebuilding the
array or using it is as degraded - data calculated from parity for array blocks
that have not been touched by a write request during the unclean shutdown can
be incorrect. Such condition is known as the RAID5 Write Hole. Because of
