I am not sending these events from the initramfs as well because it would be non-trivial to ensure that an event doesn't get sent twice for a given array. Anyway, this is all a hack until the kernel sends online/offline events to udev. See #394193. * Added more RAID10 information to the FAQ. * Added filters to logcheck for regular events, even by the md driver; also promoted messages about non-fresh components to security events. * Hide informational messages unless VERBOSE is set to a true value in /etc/default/mdadm. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 26 Oct 2006 22:35:24 +0200 mdadm (2.5.4-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release: - --examine now reports chunk size also for RAID6 and RAID10 - fix endianness issues with v1 superblocks (closes: #385726) and bitmap metadata. - improved message when mdadm detects similar superblocks (closes: #385951). - documents that the automatic update of the super-minor field in the superblock when using a 2.6 kernel only applies to RAID levels 1 and higher. RAID0 array superblocks must be manually updated (closes: #386315, #388172). - removes partition table from any whole device added to an array. - allow --auto=yes to specify a number; if mdadm determines from the device name that you want a partitionable array, this number determines the number of sub-device nodes to create. * Removed patch previously used to fix #385951 because it's not adequate.

I actually think this is a bug and hope upstream will use dX (e.g. d0) instead in a future version. - we specify --symlink=no and thus disable the new feature to create /dev/mdX symlinks to /dev/md/X devices until the entire device node mess is cleared up. No need to introduce yet another complicating factor at this stage. * Instead of trying to do a whole lot of magic with respect to detecting RAID devices to start, mdadm from now on requires a valid mdadm.conf file to be installed.

See /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.upgrading-2.5.3 . * Removed the zero-superblock warning because we require the user to sign off the configuration file anyway. * This also enables us to use mdadm.conf from the initial ramdisk and thus closes: #381303. * In case the user chooses to assemble all arrays from the initial ramdisk, use the new homehost feature of mdadm (closes: #381057). This will start only those arrays belonging to the local system, unless it is the first run on a system, in which case it will start all arrays and mark them as belonging to the local system. * Improved the debconf control script: integrated error messages into the frontends, and made it a bit smarter. Error messages can now be translated, and the script checks whether the user's choice is listed in the configuration file and only proceeds if it is, or the user chooses to ignore that it is not. * mkconf can now take a generate/force-generate parameter to write directly to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. A second parameter specifies an alternate filename. * mkconf now outputs comments for the settings it suggests. * Removed all udev-related stuff. We must coexist with udev because there are setups that assemble arrays without mdadm, so the device nodes must be created by udev, if that is used. (closes: #382263, #382450, #383688, #383891, #383806, #382480) Staying at low urgency since these (RC) bugs only exist in unstable. * Now installs MD modules and mdadm/mdrun into initial ramdisk regardless of whether the hook script thinks there are devices to start. This was done to enable recovery from the initramfs shell. * Now uses 'MD' instead of 'RAID' consistently in all messages. * Now rebuilds initramfs for all installed kernels. * Now breaks the endless config loop only when the user does not see the question (see #381284, #381007). * Don't fail mdadm-raid when /dev is on a read-only filesystem (closes: #382876). * Updated debconf translations: - French by Florentin Duneau (closes: #382389). -- martin f. krafft Mon, 21 Aug 2006 00:25:22 +0100 mdadm (2.5.2-10) unstable; urgency=low * Applied patch by upstream to fix the logic of the --run switch (see #287415). Thus also reverted the mdadm-raid hack used to fix the bug in the 2.5.2-9 upload. * Recognise devfs-style device nodes by fixing a regression bug in the root RAID autodetection code (closes: #381007), which was introduced as part of the fix for #380596 in the 2.5.2-9 upload. The bug is RC, but it only applies to unstable right now, so I am not pumping up the urgency. The autodetection code now doesn't care about the actual name of the array device, but instead only insists that it exists, is a block device, and recognised as an array by mdadm (mdadm --detail). * Added safety net to prevent endless loops in RAID autodetection. Now just falls back to starting all arrays from the initramfs if it fails to determine an acceptable array for the / filesystem in three tries (closes: #381284, also see #381007). * Added udev rules file to prevent udev from ever creating md device nodes, which can get in the way of mdadm (also see next item). * Added a workaround to the initramfs hook to deal with the problem with /dev/md/X device nodes when /dev/mdX is also present and version-0 superblocks are in use (closes: #381181). * checkarray: correctly recognise when the kernel is too old for parity checks, or when there are no redundant arrays present (closes: #380746). * checkarray: now supports -s|--status switch to query parity check status for given devices. * checkarray: now supports -x|--cancel switch to cancel running checks. * mkconf: now also outputs 'MAILADDR root' and 'HOMEHOST '. * Added README.checkarray with some information about the check process. * Added /usr/share/doc/mdadm/FAQ to answer some FAQs. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 3 Aug 2006 22:54:04 +0100 mdadm (2.5.2-9) unstable; urgency=low * Added logcheck rules for kernel messages generated by checkarray, using logcheck server level. * Added handling of partitionable arrays to root RAID autodetection script (closes: #380596). * Forcing RAID assembly to run the arrays, working around an upstream bug until that's fixed (closes: #287415). * Updated documentation in README.initramfs-transition to include information related to #380089. * Updated debconf translations: - Vietnamese by Clytie Syddall, thanks! -- martin f. krafft Mon, 31 Jul 2006 14:35:38 +0100 mdadm (2.5.2-8) unstable; urgency=low * Re-added rootraiddoc.97.html which was mysteriously lost (closes: #378678). * Catching modprobe error in case of absence of the kernel modules, or a non-modular kernel. Thanks to Holger Levsen. * Copy raid456 kernel module into initramfs, if present (closes: #380152). * checkarray: check for presence of active RAID arrays and give an appropriate error if there are none present (closes: #379019). * checkarray: skip sync for non-redundant devices (closes: #379352, #380424). * Fixing cron registration for checkarray. crontab(5) is really stupid and makes me think that they simply documented a bug instead of fixing it, so now I have to hack around it. See the cron.d file (closes: #380425). * Removed the code writing auto-detected devices to /var, which was silly since /var isn't necessarily mounted yet by the time mdadm-raid is called. Thanks to Maurizio Avogadro for pointing this out. * Add reference to BAARF to README.Debian and included the RAID5 vs RAID10 article from the BAARF website. * Updated debconf translations: - Japanese by Hideki Yamane, thanks! - French by Florentin Duneau, thanks! (closes: #379511) -- martin f. krafft Thu, 27 Jul 2006 22:49:32 +0100 mdadm (2.5.2-7) unstable; urgency=low * Release to unstable. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 20 Jul 2006 17:23:23 +0100 mdadm (2.5.2-6) experimental; urgency=low * Adding mdrun to generated udeb. I will only remove mdrun after etch. * Updated debconf translations: - Dutch, thanks to Frans "Franzerl" Pop! (closes: #377412) - French, thanks to Florentin Duneau! (closes: #377968) -- martin f. krafft Thu, 13 Jul 2006 23:11:24 +0200 mdadm (2.5.2-5) UNRELEASED; urgency=low * Remove the check for the lvm prereq in the initramfs hook, as #369617 is now fixed. Thus conflicts against initramfs-tools (<< 0.65). * Updated debconf translations: - German, thanks to Mario Joußen! * Added short note about maintenance in SVN to README.Debian. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 13 Jul 2006 23:10:36 +0200 mdadm (2.5.2-4) UNRELEASED; urgency=low * The "it takes two to swing" release. * Now does not stop arrays on upgrade or remove. Thanks (and sorry) to Christian Pernegger (and hopefully no others). * Fixed small problem in debconf configuration script related to unbound MAIL_TO variable. Thanks to Christian Pernegger. -- martin f. krafft Fri, 7 Jul 2006 16:59:01 +0200 mdadm (2.5.2-3) UNRELEASED; urgency=low * The initramfs now gets all RAID modules installed. It's a lot safer to have them all around, the size difference is negligible, and we still only load the needed ones at boot time. * Added /usr/share/mdadm/checkarray, which can be used to check arrays for parity. Also added a debconf question to let the user choose whether cron should run these checks (closes: #377071). * Only shut down arrays automatically when they've been automatically started (closes: #376009). * Make sure the user has a chance to choose the autostart feature by elevating the debconf priority to high (see #376009). The warning about reuse of RAID components has also been elevated to debconf priority high. * The MAIL_TO setting from /etc/default/mdadm has been removed. Instead, use MAILADDR in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. See mdadm.conf(5). Your setting should be automatically migrated. * Now rewrites /etc/default/mdadm (but preserves settings) instead of trying to patch it with changes. * Added note to README.Debian to ensure users know that only the devices listed in mdadm.conf will be autostarted (see #376009). * Now includes latest md.txt from kernel documentation in /usr/share/doc/mdadm/md.txt.gz. * Added some more recipes to /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.recipes.gz. * Updated debconf translations: - Swedish, thanks to Daniel Nylander! - Brazilian Portuguese, thanks to Felipe Augusto van de Wiel! - Czech, thanks to Miroslav Kure! - Russian, thanks to Yuri Kozlov (closes: #376181). * Further updates to the debconf templates; I hope the translators aren't going to kill me. -- martin f. krafft Fri, 7 Jul 2006 15:09:40 +0200 mdadm (2.5.2-2) experimental; urgency=low * The "if it weren't for Munich's wheat beer, there'd be no" release. * Removed -fno-strict-aliasing from compiler options, after upstream fixed the bug that led to its use (see #369779, #356153). Thanks to Elimar Riesebieter for pointing this out (closes: #375876). * Moved detection of RAID devices from initramfs hook to debconf control file, and added a (low-priority) debconf question as to which devices should be started early in the boot sequence. For the cases where we failed to auto-detect previously (e.g. root on LVM on RAID), it's paranoid and suggests to start them all (closes: #375879). Thanks to Alec Berryman for spotting this. * Fixed a typo in README.experimental, which could lead to an unbootable system with initramfs-tools 0.64 or before. Again, thanks to Alec for spotting this. * Extended bug script to include --examine output for all components (at least if called by root, which hopefully should never happen. Err, wait...) * Disabled deprecation warning in mdrun until the transition is complete. * Reworded the debconf templates due to a new question, and also for readability. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 29 Jun 2006 22:54:47 +0200 mdadm (2.5.2-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release. * Implemented checks in the initramfs hooks and scripts for compatibility with initramfs-tools. Now we do not need a conflict anymore because mdadm's hooks and scripts will simply do nothing while the ones provided by initramfs-tools are still present. * Not using /bin/bash for mdrun, which I thought we'd need for read timeout support (for the deprecation warning). Since the -n and -t flags to the read shell builtin are non-POSIX, I dropped them, they were merely cosmetic anyway. -- martin f. krafft Tue, 27 Jun 2006 15:06:55 +0200 mdadm (2.5.1-2) experimental; urgency=low * Updating dependency on initramfs-tools, which has not yet adopted to mdadm taking over the hooks. -- martin f. krafft Mon, 26 Jun 2006 22:35:08 +0200 mdadm (2.5.1-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release: - Really fixes return status of examine (closes: #367901). - Fixes a memory leak in monitor mode (closes: #372618). - Fixes compiler warnings and errors (closes: #373802, #356153, #369779). - Fix byte swapping issues (closes: #369765). - Now lists devices it stops (closes: #369850). This also leads to beautification of the init.d script's stop action. * Fixed RAID init script to not complain about missing logger command. -- martin f. krafft Mon, 26 Jun 2006 00:58:36 +0200 mdadm (2.5-4) experimental; urgency=low * The "would you like fries with your parasite?" release. * Now does not require RAID support from the kernel just for package installation; that was silly of me, sorry (closes: Bug#370115). * Added version to Replaces: initramfs-tools dependency. * Further init.d script improvements. * Recommends mail-transport-agent, or the monitor daemon won't be able to send anything. * Ignores failures from modprobe in postinst when RAID modules are not available (closes: #370582). -- martin f. krafft Tue, 6 Jun 2006 12:45:53 +0200 mdadm (2.5-3) experimental; urgency=low * Added /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.recipes with some common usage examples. * Vastly improved the mdadm-raid init.d script output, and removed bashisms. -- martin f. krafft Fri, 2 Jun 2006 00:45:06 +0200 mdadm (2.5-2) experimental; urgency=low * The "on her majesty's secret service" release. * Enabled -DDEBIAN during build, which will take care of default permissions on devices created by mdadm. Together with the CREATE configuration directive in 2.5, this now certainly closes: Bug#310241. * Added a patch (incorporating lib/mm/xlate.h from lvm2) to prevent direct access to kernel headers from userspace (closes: Bug#369765). * Disabled strict aliasing compiler checks until we find a better implementation for linked lists in C (closes: Bug#369779, Bug#356153). * Actually decreased the size of the udeb mdadm binary with -Os -fomit-frame-pointer (as suggested by Joey Hess) (closes: Bug#314370) * Added Replaces: initramfs-tools to communicate that we're not conflicting but replacing instead (see Bug#367567) * Updated conflict with initramfs-tools to (<< 0.63) per suggestion by the maintainers. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 1 Jun 2006 20:15:17 +0200 mdadm (2.5-1) experimental; urgency=low * The "show me the way to the next whiskey bar" release. * See /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.experimental or http://madduck.net/~madduck/scratch/README.experimental * New upstream release: - mails include /proc/mdstat output (closes: Bug#355882) - allows specification of device permissions in config (closes: Bug#310241) * /sbin/mdrun has been deprecated and replaced by calls to /sbin/mdadm; a proper deprecation warning is in place (see NEWS). * Moved initramfs hook and script into the package, and switched it to mdadm (from mdadm. Thanks to Stephen Frost for his help (closes: Bug#354144). This should make sure that the right minor numbers are chosen during boot (mainly because mdadm takes care of it all) (closes: Bug#361408). * Removing mdrun from the udeb (d-i patch submitted to debian-boot mailing list) * Upstream links against openssl for SHA1 support (homehost feature), which is a problem. An internal SHA1 implementation is provided, however, so I just link against that. * Switched init.d scripts to use LSB-compliant output. * Enhanced init.d script output. -- martin f. krafft Thu, 1 Jun 2006 02:20:22 +0200 mdadm (2.4.1-2) unstable; urgency=low * The "this took way longer than I thought" release. * Migrating to unstable. * If the init.d script creates the mdadm.conf file, it should remove it on purge. To accomplish this, I create a semaphore in /var/lib/mdadm if it was generated, and only remove the conffile on purge if the semaphore exists. * Added a little helper /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf to aid generation of configuration file. * Added a bug script to collect some important information when the user uses Debian bug reporting tools (such as reportbug). * Added a debian/watch file. -- martin f. krafft Wed, 31 May 2006 23:07:48 +0200 mdadm (2.4.1-1) experimental; urgency=low * The "I'll kill that maintainer... uh, wait, it's me" release. Sorry for the delay, here's the long awaited new upstream release (closes: Bug#337903, Bug#363592), which gets rid of a bunch of functionality bugs: - reiserfs size does not overflow anymore (closes: Bug#318230) - fixed typos in manpages (closes: Bug#352798) Oh, and we're moving away from that arch nightmare too. Sorry for the confusion. * Experimental release, because I really don't want to be responsible for data loss. Though I am quite sure that the upgrade is painless, I also don't have access to 18 drive RAID 10 with multipath on s390 or similar arrangements. * We now make the /dev/md* devices in postinst unless /dev/md15 exists (no longer checking for /dev/md0), or unless devfs is in use. If udev is used, /dev/md15 will only exist in complex setups, so the devices will be made in /dev/.static by MAKEDEV, which is not really a concern. I opted against unconditionally calling MAKEDEV until #367407 is fixed so as to preserve custom permissions or owner settings. This also acknowledges the NMU (#299623). closes: Bug#310247, Bug#299623 * Patched some of the code to make mdadm honour /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf over /etc/mdadm.conf (see NEWS). * Fixed a couple of typos in the mdadm(8) manpage; thanks to Reuben Thomas. closes: Bug#345669, Bug#345667 * Pushed Standards-Version to 3.7.2; no changes required. * Updated Debconf translations: - Vietnamese by Clytie Siddall (closes: Bug#323950) - Czech by Miroslav Kure (closes: Bug#360290) - Russian by Yuri Kozlov (closes: Bug#361116) - French by Eric Madesclair (closes: Bug#323988) * Added new Debconf translations: - Swedish by Daniel Nylander (closes: Bug#333486) - Dutch by Frans Pop (closes: Bug#344714) -- martin f. krafft Tue, 16 May 2006 18:21:36 -0500 mdadm (1.12.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release.

(closes: #301560) * Integrated patch by Erik van Konijnenburg to fix mdadm's --auto option in the presence of --scan. (closes: #294404, #273182, #284028, #310126). * Modified mdrun to call mdadm with --auto in assembly mode. Removed code which would auto-create 24 device nodes during system startup when udev was used. * Fixed next_free_md function in mdrun to iterate all 24 nodes instead of using some fragile shell globbing, which did not work anyway. * Prevent postinst node creation when udev is being used. * Added a README.udev file to /usr/share/doc/mdadm. -- martin f. krafft Sun, 22 May 2005 12:57:56 +0200 mdadm (1.9.0-2.1) unstable; urgency=high * Non-maintainer upload. * High-urgency upload for sarge targetted RC bugfix. * Start mdadm-raid before udev on boot-up, so that mdadm device node creation is honored, and support changing the init script ordering on upgrades (closes: #294404). * Fix mdadm --scan to prefer the values contained in /proc/partitions, instead of picking up device node names at random from /dev. * Teach mdrun to look at /dev/.static/dev instead of /.dev for udev mounts requiring autostart (closes: #301560). -- Steve Langasek Sun, 27 Mar 2005 21:59:12 -0800 mdadm (1.9.0-2) unstable; urgency=low * Patched is_standard() to accept /dev/md/* names as standard.
