mdadm (4.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* QA upload.
* Adding debconf question to disable daily array scan (Closes: #689304):
- if enabled (default), mdadm checks once a day for degraded arrays
and missing spares to ensure that such events don't go unnoticed.
- this is not useful when the system is part of an infrastructure
with dedicated monitoring systems (e.g. icinga).
- this debconf question makes it possible to disable these checks.

template variable BINDIR. LP: #1705215
-- Dimitri John Ledkov <xnox@ubuntu.com> Tue, 22 May 2018 14:26:59 +0100
mdadm (4.1~rc1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Import patches since rc1.
* Bump standards version & debhelper compat.

mdadm (4.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* Ship mdadm-shutdown.service and suggest dracut-core. Users of systemd
with rootfs on Intel Matrix Raid and DDF external metadata-raid arrays
that require mdmon monitoring, may wish to install dracut-core package
and enable mdadm-shutdown.service. This will create a shutdown
initramfs, that systemd-shutdown can pivot to. This may result in an
improved shutdown behaviour with less hangs and synced raid
arrays. The generated initramfs will takeover mdmon monitoring, wait
for the arrays to be clean before stopping them and unmounting
everything and finally executing requested shutdown command.
* Bump standards version, no changes required.
* Bump debhelper to 9.
* Add second email address to avoid NMU warnings.
-- Dimitri John Ledkov <xnox@ubuntu.com> Tue, 10 Oct 2017 11:55:52 +0100
mdadm (4.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release. LP: #1668128

initrafms.
* Fix checkarray script bugs. LP: #1599428 Closes: #787950 Closes: #843665
-- Dimitri John Ledkov <xnox@ubuntu.com> Thu, 22 Jun 2017 13:23:10 +0100
mdadm (3.4-4) unstable; urgency=high
* Bring in changes from Ubuntu, to make the two packages in sync:
- Drop README.Debian, quite out-of-date w.r.t. current packaging.
- debian/control - on ubuntu, downgrade default-mta from Recommends to
Suggests.
- update-grub in postinst, if available (note does not update grub1).
- drop stderr warnings in postrm.
- drop presubj, out of date, and all types of bugs are welcomed.
- on ubuntu, install apport package hook.
- on ubuntu, install incremental assembly udev rules into udeb.
-- Dimitri John Ledkov <xnox@ubuntu.com> Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:52:07 +0100
mdadm (3.4-3) unstable; urgency=high
* Fix UUID= grep for configured RAIDs to be case incesetive, regression from 3.4-2.
* Re-trigger block devices at the start of local-block mdadm loop, to
re-incrementally assemble disks that appeared before RAID
personalities were registered with the kernel.
* Also, invoke non-incremental assembly of raid arrays in the
local-block loop to support running mdadm with user-exported variables
specified via param.conf.
* Set Vcs- fields to dgit repositories.
* Closes: #830770, #830300.
-- Dimitri John Ledkov <xnox@ubuntu.com> Tue, 26 Jul 2016 17:09:54 +0100
mdadm (3.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Reneable incremental assembly
* Rely on udev to assemble incremental arrays
* In environments with systemd rely on mdadm-last-resort@.timer|.service
units to activate degrated raids
* In environments initramfs-tools initrd (no systemd) add local-block
script to do the same after 2/3rds of root delay iteration
* Drop local-top initramfs script
* Drop dependency on initscripts package
* Drop INITRDSTART support
* Drop mdadm-raid init script
* Drop ancient preinst
* In mdadm.init remove dependency on mdadm-raid
* In mdadm.init check, and bail out running in a container
* In mdadm.config drop mdadm/autostart logic
* Drop CREATE stanzas from mkconf and don't include them in the
initramfs. The generated defaults, are the compiled-in defaults. And
the current one generates warnings when running mdadm in the
initramfs, as there is no passwd|group files to resolve root/disk
uid/gid. Closes: 717609
* Adapt changes and formatting of initramfs hook from Ubuntu
* Bump standards version to 3.9.7, no changes required
* Fix copyright-refers-to-symlink-license

* use-tempnode-not-devnode.patch: change udev rules file to use
$tempnode which works both on wheezy and jessie udev, instead
of $devnode which only works in jessie. At this stage it is
better to make rules file compatible with old version instead
of adding versioned dependency. Should be removed for jessie+1.

other docs shipped with the package, since these becoming stale
and these days, better alternatives exist online
* removed debian-specific mdadm-startall script which does nothing more than
"mdadm --assemble --scan". Remove docbook-to-man from build-deps.

* replace home-grown and not-working-since-etch udevsettle call
in initramfs script with proper wait_for_udev function (from
common initramfs functions). This unbreaks situations when
the underlying device needs some udev magic to happen before
being available, which includes stacked devices (md on lvm)
and other cases. Thanks to Thomas Parmelan and Dave Whitla
for finding the root cause of breakage and for providing
the fix. (Closes: #644876)

mdadm (3.2.5-4+mdmon) experimental; urgency=low
* fix `/etc/init.d/mdadm-raid status' inverse logic (Closes: #686100)
* /etc/init.d/mdadm: change RUNDIR to /run instead of /var/run.
Mdadm itself uses /run internally, we properly depend on initscripts
version which creates /run, and the initscript itself is started
after local_fs is processed, so this is merely a no-op, but let's
do it for consistency.
* Fix 'enough' function for RAID10, to prevent starting of a RAID10
array which does not have required minimum of component devices.
(Closes: #691668).
* fix segfaults in Detail() - mdadm --detail may segfault if a drive
has been removed from the array (Closes: #691670)
* super0: do not override uuid with homehost. The bug prevented
re-creating an array with v0.90 superblock with the specified uuid
when homehost is also specified. (Closes: #686703)
* several fixes for mdmon argument processing (Closes: #691671):
- allow --takeover when original was started with --offroot
- fix arg parsing.
- fix arg processing for -a
* Changes based on a patch by Miquel van Smoorenburg (Closes: #684708):
- install mdmon in udeb and initramfs, so imsm arrays can work.
mdadm runs mdmon automatically when needed (currently for imsm
arrays), and mdmon is required to make such arrays read-write
(they're read-only by default) so merely presence of mdmon is
enough to be able to use imsm arrays.
- /etc/init.d/mdadm start: if a mdmon pidfile is found in /run/mdadm,
restart mdmon (--takeover --all)
- /etc/init.d/mdadm stop: link pidfiles of mdmon processes into
/run/sendsigs.omit.d, and make sure that happens before sendsigs runs.
- stop mdadm before sendsigs, so that the above code works
- add script mdadm-waitidle that runs just before reboot/halt.
For each array that is still running, it sets sync_action to idle,
and uses mdadm --wait-clean to wait for all arrays to go idle
(it has a short timeout).

* Moved mdadm-raid init.d script to position S60 (from S50) for runlevels
0 and 6, so that arrays get stopped after cryptdisks-early; thanks to
J.M.Roth (closes: #486012).
* Fixed a typo in checkarray; thanks to Helmut Grohne (closes: #445540).
* Updated debconf translations:
- Spanish; thanks to Javier Fernández-Sanguino (closes: #477920).
- Basque; thanks to Piarres Beobide (closes: #478676).
* Updated logcheck rule so that it matches mdadm log entries with and without
PID (2.6.5 introduces PIDs in the messages).

mdadm (2.6.3+200709292116+4450e59-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New merge from upstream @4450e59ffaf75623fa4261e244b0717a7463aa84
- makes "--write-mostly" effective when re-adding a device to an array.
(closes: #442874).
* Do not call update-initramfs -k all, it can be set via
/etc/initramfs-tools/update-initramfs.conf (closes: #439334).
* Depend on udev|makedev instead of just makedev and invoke /dev/MAKEDEV,
not /sbin/MAKEDEV (closes: #436998).
* De-escalate the initramfs hook warning about an "emergency procedure" and
simply note that this involves initramfs assembling arrays it finds
automatically at boot. Also added a FAQ entry on how to turn off the init
script warning when no arrays are found (closes: #434934).
* Add --scan to the single-device-assembly-codepath in the initramfs
local-top script; thanks to Mario 'BitKoenig' Holbe for the patch
(closes: #440703).
* Use short option in initramfs script mkdir call, so make it klibc-utils
compatible; thanks maximilian attems for the patch (closes: #443436).
* Handle module name synonyms in initramfs hook script (closes: #432585).

mdadm (2.6.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Fix typos in md(4) manpage; thanks Jeroen (closes: #425576).
* Make init script not report failure when there are no arrays defined in
config file.
* Add /usr/share/doc/mdadm/examples/newdisk, a script to integrate
a replacement disk into an existing array with minimal effort; will remain
in examples/ until I had a chance to really test and understand it. Thanks
to Arno van Amersfoort (closes: #427880).
* Does some sanity checking for proper format of level= arguments in
mdadm.conf and bails if an error is found. Since the RAID levels are used
verbatim as module names, a discrepancy might lead to an unusable system.
Instead, we thus use the emergency fallback. Thanks to Andrew
Sackville-West for spotting this and helping me with the fix.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Tue, 10 Jul 2007 09:59:45 +0200
mdadm (2.6.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- new options --fail detach and --remove faulty can be used to fail and
remove devices that are no longer physically present (closes: #416512).
- --help output now goes to stdout (closes: #416653).
- plenty of manpage fixes, thanks Peter Samuelson (closes: #414688).
* Incorporated patch by Mikko Rasa to fix detecting of raid6 (and raid10)
devices with --scan (closes: #421915).
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Mon, 21 May 2007 14:25:43 +0200
mdadm (2.6.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Release to unstable.
* Start arrays read-only in initramfs to prevent syncing and hence enable
resuming/freezing. The arrays will automatically sync as soon something
writes to it; thanks to Tim Dijkstra, Neil Brown, and Luis Rodrigo
Gallardo Cruz (closes: #415441).
* mkconf now tries to preserve existing values for DEVICE, CREATE and
HOMEHOST (in addition to MAILADDR, which it preserved previously already).
PROGRAM is preserved but only added to mdadm.conf if it occured in the
previously existing configuration file.
* startall is now mdadm-startall and lives in /sbin, thanks to Eduard Bloch.
It now can handle existing mdadm.conf files much more gracefully, mostly
thanks to the above mkconf enhancements (closes: #415336).

mdadm (2.5.6-9) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
* More logcheck filters to prevent redundant information logged by mdadm
--syslog.
* Improved mdadm-raid init script to correctly output status information for
drives that are initialising or adding spares.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Thu, 11 Jan 2007 16:05:12 +0100
mdadm (2.5.6-8) unstable; urgency=low
* Hard-code path to /sbin/mdadm binary rather than searching the $PATH. This
closes: #403307 and should be a little more robust in the presence of
installations of mdadm in /usr/local.
* Made the bugscript a little more failure-resilient.
* Added more documentation.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Mon, 8 Jan 2007 02:04:25 +0100
mdadm (2.5.6-7) unstable; urgency=low
* Only parse ARRAY lines from configuration file when collecting the array
pairs. Thanks to Daniel Dehennin for the bug report and suggested fix
(closes: #402106).
* Prevent modules from being loaded during initramfs time if no arrays are
to be assembled at this stage.
* Export DAEMON_OPTIONS to /etc/default/mdadm, which gets passed to the
mdadm daemon on startup from the init.d script. The value is set to
-y/--syslog by default, and will get incorporated into debconf in a future
version; thanks for the idea by Alex Owen (closes: #401696).
* Incorporate patch by upstream to fix handling of --syslog long option
(closes: #402457).
* Added logcheck filters for new syslog entries by mdadm monitoring daemon.
* Added Spanish debconf translation by Javier Fernández-Sanguino
(closes: #402681).

a dash shell; thanks to Santiago Garcia Mantinan for reporting this, and
Andreas Metzeler for providing a solution (closes: #399315).
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Mon, 20 Nov 2006 15:02:34 +0800
mdadm (2.5.6-5) unstable; urgency=low

mdadm (2.5.6-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Actually remove mdadm.conf on purge; previously, the generation of
a temporary file for initramfs would screw up the purging; thanks to
Fabrice Lorrain for the report (closes: #398088).

-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Thu, 9 Nov 2006 15:47:51 +0100
mdadm (2.5.6-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Small fixes to mkconf, now returns 255 instead of -1.
* Added /usr/share/mdadm/startall, a helper script to facilitate starting
all arrays when booting from rescue/live media. It overrides AUTOSTART in
/etc/default/mdadm and starts arrays even if the variable is set to
a false value.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Thu, 9 Nov 2006 14:44:35 +0100
mdadm (2.5.6-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- added note to mdadm(8)/--metadata about overriding the default in
mdadm.conf (closes: #396914).
- fixed problems that could cause infinite loop with auto assemble. Thanks
to Dan Pascu for pointing this out (closes: #396582).
- fixed problems with bitmap file names lost after reading from
configuration file.
* Merged patch by Dan Pascu to nicely handle situations where a degraded
array only has one drive left nicely by the mdadm-raid script.
* Updated Japanese debconf translation; thanks to Hideki Yamane
(closes: #396400).
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Thu, 9 Nov 2006 00:47:45 +0100
mdadm (2.5.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- fixes the build problems on several architectures (closes: #393314) by
including the contents of linux/blkpg.h literally, not via #include.
- optimises bitmap file use on 64bit systems.
- does not error out anymore when trying to assemble an already assembled
array without a corresponding /dev device node.
- does not report an error if --assemble --scan only finds already running
arrays.
- fixes several bugs related to RAID10 and the new offset layout.
- improves error message when a wrong '--update' option is given.
* Added FAQ entries about partitionable arrays.
* chroot detection now also works for 2.6.18 and beyond (c.f. kernel commit
778c1144771f0064b6f51bee865cceb0d996f2f9).
* Now recommends module-init-tools.
* Hides ugly errors during configuration in the absense of module-init-tools
or initramfs-tools.
* Send udev events for arrays assembled by the mdadm-raid init.d script.
This does not close #394193 but it's a good addition anyway. 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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.
See the bug log for reasons.

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-8) unstable; urgency=low
* This revision is dedicated to Peter Samuelson for his RAID10 expertise^W
educated guess^W^W pure luck. (:
* Now writes minimal mdadm.conf file even if the MD subsystem has not been
loaded and the scan for arrays thus failed.
* Now tries to ensure that the configuration file used for the initramfs
actually defines arrays.
* Now preserves MAILADDR from an existing mdadm.conf when generating a new
one.
* Documentation updates.
* Updated debconf translations:
- German by Mario Joußen.

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-6) unstable; urgency=high
* Bumping urgency to high because previous version has been in unstable for
three days and this one really only fixes a stupid segfault:
* Reworked the parsing of /proc/partitions and spotted a mean segfault
(closes: #388355).

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-5) unstable; urgency=medium
* Keeping medium urgency due to RC bug.
* Modified the patch responsible for pruning parent devices so that
superblocks at the end of a disk do not get interpreted twice. It now
makes less assumptions about the exact output of /proc/partitions and
should thus be more robust (now closes: #385951).
* Added code that defers mdadm preconfiguration when the debconf backend is
too old (and does not provide debconf-escape). Now configuration is
postponed until the postinst is run in this case.

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* Urgency medium because of RC bugs.
* Add versioned dependency to debconf (closes: #385994); temporary fix until
we find a proper fix for #386439.
* Add patch by Steinar H. Gunderson to ensure mdadm does not interpret
a superblock as belonging to a device when it's actually part of
a partition on that device (closes: #385951).
* Do not override the superblock default version in mdadm.conf to prevent
creation of superblocks that the kernel can't handle (closes: #384614).
* Added a note to alert people that the warning about arrays not listed in
the configuration file is only relevant if the arrays are needed to be
brought up by mdadm from initramfs during boot (closes: #385017).
* Added bootloader/cmdline info to bugscript so that future bug reports via
bug/reportbug include information on how the system is booted with respect
to RAID (the root partition).
* If mdadm is being configured in a chroot, it now defaults to starting all
arrays from the initial ramdisk, rather than trying to figure out the root
MD array (we're using /proc information, so it would be the one of the
host, not the one of the chroot) (closes: #386468).
* Added LSB headers to init scripts.
* Reworked the documentation with respect to the use of "MD" and "RAID", and
added a FAQ entry on the meaning of "MD". Thanks to Frans Pop for his
help!
* Updated debconf translations:
- Czech by Miroslav Kure (closes: #384754).
- French by Florentin Duneau (closes: #385690).
- Russian by Yuri Kozlov (closes: #387017).

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Allow ARRAY lines in configuration file to break across lines
(closes: #384222).
* Improved initramfs hook; now does not rely on initramfs to provide RAID
assembly:
- if a checked mdadm.conf file is present, use that.
- if an unchecked mdadm.conf is present, create a temporary one
- if that fails, use the unchecked one iff it contains at least one
ARRAY statement. Otherwise rely on auto-generation from the initramfs
during the book (and hope for the best).
- if no mdadm.conf is found, create one on the fly
- if that fails, hope that the auto-generation will work during boot
* Improved the messages printed by the initramfs script.
* Do not store the debconf answer for whether arrays not listed in the
configuration file should be used.
* Now asks again for the devices to start (preseeded with 'all') if the user
does not want to proceed with devices not listed in the configuration
file.

mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Tracking upstream git releases.
- now the --run switch behaves as stated in the manpage. This properly
fixes #287415
- new version-1 partitionable arrays are now named X instead of _dX (e.g.
0 instead of _d0) for device names like md_dX. 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. It still tries to do what it can, but there are no
heuristics anymore. 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <system>'.
* Added README.checkarray with some information about the check process.
* Added /usr/share/doc/mdadm/FAQ to answer some FAQs.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> 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!

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 <madduck@debian.org> Thu, 27 Jul 2006 22:49:32 +0100

-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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 <madduck@debian.org> 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)

mdadm (1.9.0-4.1) unstable; urgency=high
* Non-maintainer upload.
* High-urgency upload for sarge-targetted RC bugfix
* Make sure error output from MAKEDEV is sent to stderr, to avoid
interfering with debconf; this avoids installation problems on
udev-using systems. Thanks to Jonas Smedegaard for the patch.
Closes: #299623.

mdadm (1.9.0-3) unstable; urgency=high
* High-urgency upload for sarge targeted RC bugfix.
* Applied patch by Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>, which causes mdadm to
follow symlinks of device nodes (closes: #274859, #310412, #310492).
* Added myself as co-maintainer as per agreement with Mario Joussen.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Tue, 24 May 2005 00:03:49 +0200
mdadm (1.9.0-2.3) unstable; urgency=high
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Do not prevent postinst node creation when udev is being used; MAKEDEV
puts files into /dev/.static/dev with udev, which is needed so that device
nodes will be there even if udev is removed. Sorry for letting this slip
my mind and thanks to Steve Langasek for spotting this error.
* Leaving urgency at high to make sarge.
-- martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> Sun, 22 May 2005 19:35:04 +0200
mdadm (1.9.0-2.2) unstable; urgency=high
* Non-maintainer upload.
* High-urgency upload for sarge targeted RC bugfix.
* Move mdadm-raid back to S25 as it needs to run after modules have been
loaded at S20 (see followups to #294404, #301560).
* Verified that Steve Langasek's patch to config.c (see item 4 of the
1.9.0-2.1 changelog) is necessary for `mdadm -A -s` to work.
(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 <madduck@debian.org> 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).
