* fix mdmon takeoverLuca Berra2010-03-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | - when we waited for the old mdmon to exit, we didn't look for the socket in the right place - when we failed to find a pid file, we returned the wrong value (code expected <0, but got ==0). Signed-off-by: Luca Berra <bluca@comedia.it> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
* mdmon: allow pid to be stored in different directory.NeilBrown2010-02-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | /var/run probably doesn't persist from early boot. So if necessary, store in in /lib/init/rw or somewhere else that does persist. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
* mdmon: preserve socket over chrootDan Williams2009-10-131-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | Connect to the monitor in the old namespace and use that connection for WaitClean requests when stopping the victim mdmon instance. This allows ping_monitor() to work post chroot(). Cc: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
* ping_manager() to prevent 'add' before 'remove' completesDan Williams2008-09-151-4/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is currently possible to remove a device and re-add it without the manager noticing, i.e. without detecting a mdstat->devcnt container->devcnt mismatch. Introduce ping_manager() to arrange for mdmon to run manage_container() prior to mdadm dropping the exclusive open() on the container. Despite these precautions sysfs_read() may still fail. If this happens invalidate container->devcnt to ensure manage_container() runs at the next event. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
* Add ping_monitor() to mdadm --waitDan Williams2008-09-151-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The action we are waiting for may not be complete until the monitor has had a chance to take action on the result. The following script can now remove the device on the first attempt, versus a few attempts with the original Wait(): #!/bin/bash #export MDADM_NO_MDMON=1 export IMSM_DEVNAME_AS_SERIAL=1 ./mdadm -Ss ./mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/loop[0-3] echo 2 > /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max ./mdadm --create /dev/imsm /dev/loop[0-3] -n 4 -e imsm -a md ./mdadm --create /dev/md/r1 /dev/loop[0-3] -n 4 -l 5 --force -a mdp ./mdadm --fail /dev/md/r1 /dev/loop3 ./mdadm --wait /dev/md/r1 x=0 while ! ./mdadm --remove /dev/imsm /dev/loop3 > /dev/null 2>&1 do x=$((x+1)) done echo "removed after $x attempts" ./mdadm --add /dev/imsm /dev/loop3 Include 2 small cleanups: * remove the almost open coded fd2devnum() in Wait() by introducing a new utility routine stat2devnum() * teach connect_monitor() to parse the container device from a subarray string Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
* msg: add a timeout to ping_monitorNeilBrown2008-07-181-2/+2
| | | | | | | Though it should never bee needed, having a timeout in ping_monitor is a sensible safeguard. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de>

* Remove mgr_pipe for communicating from manage to monitor.Neil Brown2008-07-121-1/+1
| | | | | Data is being passed in shared memory, so the pipe is only being use as a wakeup. This can more easily be done with a thread-signal.
* Handle device removal from containerNeil Brown2008-07-121-13/+0
| | | | | | | This really should be done in mdadm, not mdmon. We ensure the device won't be suddenly commited as a hot-spare using O_EXCL, then check the 'holders' sysfs directory to make sure it is only in use once.
* handle Manage_subdevs() for 'external' arraysDan Williams2008-05-151-0/+249
