Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.1.5 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
|
||||
|
||||
I am pleased to announce the availability of
|
||||
mdadm version 3.1.5
|
||||
|
||||
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
|
||||
|
||||
This is a bugfix/stability release over 3.1.4. It contains all the
|
||||
important bugfixes found while working on 3.2 and 3.2.1. It will be
|
||||
the last 3.1.x release - 3.2.1 is expected to be released in a few days.
|
||||
|
||||
Changes include:
|
||||
- Fixes for v1.x metadata on big-endian machines.
|
||||
- man page improvements
|
||||
- Improve '--detail --export' when run on partitions of an md array.
|
||||
- Fix regression with removing 'failed' or 'detached' devices.
|
||||
- Fixes for "--assemble --force" in various unusual cases.
|
||||
- Allow '-Y' to mean --export. This was documented but not implemented.
|
||||
- Various fixed for handling 'ddf' metadata. This is now more reliable
|
||||
but could benefit from more interoperability testing.
|
||||
- Correctly list subarrays of a container in "--detail" output.
|
||||
- Improve checks on whether the requested number of devices is supported
|
||||
by the metadata - both for --create and --grow.
|
||||
- Don't remove partitions from a device that is being included in an
|
||||
array until we are fully committed to including it.
|
||||
- Allow "--assemble --update=no-bitmap" so an array with a corrupt
|
||||
bitmap can still be assembled.
|
||||
- Don't allow --add to succeed if it looks like a "--re-add" is probably
|
||||
wanted, but cannot succeed. This avoids inadvertently turning
|
||||
devices into spares when an array is failed.
|
||||
|
||||
This release is believed to be stable and you should feel free to
|
||||
upgrade to 3.1.5
