We widely use a "devnum" which is 0 or +ve for md%d devices
and -ve for md_d%d devices.
But I want to be able to use md_%s device names.
So get rid of devnum (a number) and use devnm (a 32char string).
eg.
md0
md_d2
md_home

We still allow --offroot to be given - for compatibility with scripts
- but ignore it.
The whole point of --offroot is to get systemd to not auto-kill mdmon,
and we always want that.

--replace can be used to replace a device without completely failing
it. Once the replacement completes the device will be failed.
--with can indicate which of several spares to use.

mdadm --create /dev/md0 .... /dev/sda1:1024 /dev/sdb1:2048 ...
The size is in K unless a suffix: K M G is given.
The suffix 's' means sectors.

This can be used to over-ride the automatic assignment of
data offset.
For --create, it is useful to re-create old arrays where different
defaults applied.
For --grow it may be able to force a reshape in the reverse direction.

We will shortly introduce --data-offset= which is allowed to
be zero. We will want to use parse_size() so it needs to be
able to return '0' without it being an error.
So define INVALID_SECTORS to be an impossible value (currently '1')
and return and test for it consistently.

--update=bbl will add a bad block list to each device.
--update=no-bblk will remove the bad block list providing that it
is empty.

Both are impossible, and '1' allows size to be unsigned,
which is neater.
Also #define MAX_SIZE to be '1' to make it all more explicit.

The value of 'verbose' is sometimes mixed into 'brief', particularly
for Examine.
This is messy and confusing. So keep them separate.
'brief' still gets assumed when 'scan' is set, unless we are very
verbose.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
If we change some functions to accept 'verbose', where <0 means to be
quiet, in place of 'quiet', then we will be able to merge
'quiet' and 'verbose' together for simplicity.

Rather than passing a long list of little flags etc to various
functions we will soon pass a small collection of structures.
This first step combines a collection of variables local to
'main' into a single structure.

malloc should never fail, and if it does it is unlikely
that anything else useful can be done. Best approach is to
abort and let some super-daemon restart.
So define xmalloc, xcalloc, xrealloc, xstrdup which don't
fail but just print a message and exit. Then use those
removing all the tests for failure.
Also replace all "malloc;memset" sequences with 'xcalloc'.

As we don't allow '-K' for '--zero-super' there is no point
using it internally. Just define a 'KillOpt' like with
other options.

Both --detail and --monitor can report the names of member
devices on an array, and do so by searching /dev and finding
the shortest name that matches.
If
--prefer=foo
is given, they will instead prefer a name that contain /foo/.
So
mdadm --detail /dev/md0 --prefer=by-path
will list the component devices via their /dev/disk/by-path/xxx
names.

It isn't sufficient to use '0' for 'error' as well will
later have fields that can validly be '0'.
So return "-1" on error.
Also fix parsing of --bitmap_check so that '0' is treated
as an error: we don't support 512B anyway.

When --offroot is specified, mdadm will change the first character of
argv[0] to '@'. This is used to signal to systemd that mdadm was
launched from initramfs and should not be shut down before returning
to the initramfs.

Providing --no-sharing is given, monitoring should be permitted.
Unfortunately the kernel current rejects GET_DISK_INFO and
GET_ARRAY_INFO for non-privileged users which is unjustified.
The info is available in sysfs and we could get it from there,
but for now, require the kernel to be fixed.

mdadm allowes to assemble 2 volumes with the same names based on the
config file. The issue is fixed by iterating over the list of md device
identifiers and comparing the names of md devices against each other,
detecting identical names and blocking the assembly should the same names
be found.
Now having detected duplicate names, mdadm terminates without assembling
the container, displaying appropriate prompt.

Extracting the 'subarray' arg for these options was being done at the
wrong place which lead to the code being a bit confusing and looking
wrong.
So reformat that code a bit better and move the extraction of
'subarray' down to the main parsing of these options rather than the
mode setting.

To allow for reshape continuation '--continue' option is added
to grow command.
Function that will be executed in grow-continue case doesn't require
information about reshape geometry. All required information are read
from metadata.
For external metadata reshape can be run for monitored array/container
only. In case when array/container is not monitored run mdmon for it.

During initrd phase continuing reshape will cause file system context
lost. This blocks ability to control reshape using checkpoints.
To avoid this, during initrd phase assemble has to be executed with
'--freeze-reshape' option. This causes that mdadm restores reshape
critical section only.
Reshape can be continued later after system full boot.
