Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.6.5 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am pleased to announce the availability of
mdadm version 2.6.5
It is available at the usual places:
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 2.6.5 adds a few minor bug fixes to 2.6.4
Changelog Entries:
- Avoid segfault when parsing /proc/mdstat with auto-read-only
arrays.
- Fix problem with failing to add devices to v.large (>4TB) arrays,
cause by problems with device-size overflow.
- For v0.90 superblocks, print the 'Events' count as a real count,
not 2 numbers separated by a dot.
- Updates some URLs in the man page.
- Allow creation of a RAID6 with exactly one missing device.
- Use LOG_PID for syslog, so you get the pid of mdadm in the log
files.
- --export now works with --examine too (not just --detail)
- Improve auto-creation of device special file when using
--incremental
- Simple locking for --incremental so mdadm doesn't get confused
when run concurrently with itself.
- Make --incremental cope better with arrays that are being reshaped.
Development of mdadm is sponsored by
SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
