What is the status of software raid = development in=20 2.2.x?

There seems to be a growing number of = hacks=20 addressing kernel raid support, tools, and such specifics as read=20 balancing, yet the kernel contains very old code for raid support which = seems to=20 act as nothing more than a placeholder for patching.

Would anybody happen to have a current = list of=20 working patches for a decent implementation of software raid1 using the = 2.2.18=20 kernel that employs some level of read performance that exceeds that of = 1=20 harddisk?
