Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.5.2 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am pleased to announce the availability of
mdadm version 2.5.2
It is available at the usual places:
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
and
countrycode=xx.
http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
and via git at
git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm
mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
known as Software RAID arrays.
Release 2.5.2 is primarily a bugfix release over 2.5.1.
It also contains a work-around for a kernel bug which affects
hot-adding to arrays with a version-1 superblock.
Changelog Entries:
- Fix problem with compiling with gcc-2 compilers
- Fix compile problem of post-incrmenting a variable in a macro arg.
- Stop map_dev from returning [0:0], as that breaks things.
- Add 'Array Slot' line to --examine for version-1 superblocks
to make it a bit easier to see what is happening.
- Work around bug in --add handling for version-1 superblocks
in 2.6.17 (and prior).
- Make -assemble a bit more resilient to finding strange
information in superblocks.
- Don't claim newly added spares are InSync!! (don't know why that
code was ever in there)
- Work better when no 'ftw' is available, and check to see
if current uclibc provides ftw.
- Never use /etc/mdadm.conf if --config file is given (previously
some code used one, some used the other).
Development of mdadm is sponsored by
SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
