Abstract
Techniques for processing write conflicts involve determining, in response to receiving a write operation for a stripe, a state of a backend operation of a stripe set, wherein the backend operation includes one of a rebuilding or re-striping operation. The techniques further involve stopping the write operation in response to the state of the backend operation indicating that the backend operation is being executed in the stripe. The techniques further involve executing the write operation in response to the state of the backend operation indicating that the backend operation is not being executed in the stripe. Accordingly, write conflicts between a write operation and a backend operation for the same stripe can be favorably avoided, and concurrent execution of the write operation and the backend operation simultaneously for the same stripe is prevented, thus preventing the deterioration of a storage system and improving storage system security and stability.
