| * Allow WRITEMOSTLY to be cleared on --readd using --readwrite.NeilBrown2008-10-251-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously it was possible to set the WRITEMOSTLY flag when adding a device to an array, but not to clear the flag when re-adding. This is now possible with --readwrite. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

| * Remove .UR .UE macros from man page because the don't do what we want.NeilBrown2008-10-171-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | .UR URL text .UE is meant to create a hyperlink from the 'text' to the 'URL'. But I wanted just to have the URL, so UR isn't really the right tool - the URL gets displayed twice. So just display the URL in bold and assume man2html etc can recognise it and do the right thing.

* | Extend --wait-clean to checkpoint resyncDan Williams2008-10-151-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Root file systems backed by external metadata arrays need to be explicitly checkpointed near the time the rootfs is marked readonly as userspace will not have an opportunity to react to the final shutdown of the array.

* | 'mdadm --wait-clean' wait for array to be marked cleanDan Williams2008-09-151-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For use in distro shutdown scripts with a RAID root file system. Returns immediately if the array is 'readonly', or not an externally managed array. It is up to the distro's scripts to make sure no new writes hit the device after this returns 'true'. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

| * Italic/bold fixes in man pages.Neil Brown2008-06-261-30/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two places that should have been .B or .I were .M, which of course is an error. So fix these and that the opportunity to be more consistent with highlighting of "mdadm". Make it always italic except when used as a literal example, then bold.

* Add --export option to --detail to use key=value pairs.Kay Sievers2007-05-081-0/+8
| | | | | | | | udev likes to get information about a device as key=value pairs so it can create disk/by-id links etc. So add --export flag which causes the output of --detail to easily parsable. From: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@novell.com>
* Hyphens and Other Manpage Typography, 4/4: literal ASCII hyphens.Peter Samuelson2007-05-081-260/+260
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org> nroff formats "-" as the very short hyphen used for hyphenated terms and for splitting a word across two lines. When you want a literal ASCII "-", like for typing on a command line, you're supposed to use "\-" instead. Yeah, it sounds pedantic, but it actually makes a difference. With modern Unicode-capable terminals, "man" actually renders these with different characters, so if you try to search for "--create" in your favorite pager, you won't find it unless the nroff source says "\-\-create". This discrepancy doesn't generally show up with non-Unicode terminals. Signed-Off-By: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>

| | | | | | | | | From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org> \(em renders as "--" in ASCII, and a nice em dash (i.e., a dash the width of the letter "m") in more capable formats like PostScript. Signed-Off-By: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>
