This patch tries recreates missing/faulty journal in mdadm.
Example:
./mdadm --fail /dev/md1 /dev/sdb2
mdadm: set /dev/sdb2 faulty in /dev/md1
./mdadm --stop /dev/md1
mdadm: stopped /dev/md1
./mdadm -A --scan --force
mdadm: Journal is missing or stale, starting array read only.
mdadm: /dev/md/1 has been started with 15 drives.
./mdadm --add-journal /dev/md1 /dev/sdb2
mdadm: added /dev/sdb2

A clustered disk is added by the traditional --add sequence.
However, other nodes need to acknowledge that they can "see"
the device. This is done by --cluster-confirm:
--cluster-confirm SLOTNUM:/dev/whatever (if disk is found)
or
--cluster-confirm SLOTNUM:missing (if disk is not found)
The node initiating the --add, has the disk state tagged with
MD_DISK_CLUSTER_ADD and the one confirming tag the disk with
MD_DISK_CANDIDATE.

The home-cluster is stored in the bitmap super block of the
array. The device can be assembled on a cluster with the
cluster name same as the one recorded in the bitmap.
If home-cluster is not specified, this is auto-detected using

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.

When --offroot is specified, mdadm will change the first character of

To allow for reshape continuation '--continue' option is added
to grow command.
Function that will be executed in grow-continue case doesn't require

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.

Hi Neil,
I noticed that the -Y option, as in mdadm -D -Y /dev/md0, doesn't work

So I made a little patch to fix it, but it is simply sticking a Y in the
list of short_options in ReadMe.c.

Neil,
Please consider this patch that once was discussed and I think agreed with in general direction. It was sent a while ago
but somehow did not merged into your devel3-2. This patch enables hot-plug of so called bare devices (as understand by domain policies rules in mdadm.conf).
Without this patch we do NOT serve hot-plug of bare devices at all.
Thanks,
Marcin Labun

Subject: [PATCH] Dynamic hot-plug udev rules for policies
Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org, Williams, Dan J <dan.j.williams@intel.com>, Ciechanowski, Ed <ed.ciechanowski@intel.com>
When introducing policies, new hot-plug rules were added to support
bare disks. Mdadm was started for each hot plugged block device
to determine if it could be used as spare or as a replacement member for
degraded array.
This patch introduces limitation of range of devices that are handled
by mdadm.
It limits them to the ones specified in domains associated with
the actions: spare-same-port, spare and spare-force.
In order to enable hot-plug for bare disks one must update udev rules
with command
mdadm --activate-domains[=filename]
Above command writes udev rule configuration to stdout. If 'filename'
is given output is written to the file provided as parameter. It is up
to system administrator what should be done later. To make such rule
permanent (i.e. remain after reboot) rule should be writen to
/lib/udev/rules.d directory. Other cases will just need to write it to
/dev/.udev/rules.d directory where temporary rules lies. One should be
aware of the meaning of names/priorities of the udev rules.
After mdadm.conf is changed one is obliged to re-run
"mdadm --activate-domains" command in order to bring the system
configuration up to date.
All hot-plugged disks containing metadata are still handled by existing
rules.

Though not having the proper backup file can cause data corruption, it
is not enough to justify not being able to start the array at all.
So allow "--invalid-backup" to be specified which says "just continue
even if a backup cannot be restored".

In several cases, two different long options map to the same short
option. So e.g. you could give '--brief' and it would be interpreted
as '--bitmap'. That isn't really good.
So for every shared short option, define an option number and return
that for the long option instead. Then always check for both the
short and long options.
Also give some bugs like " mode == 'G'" which should be '== GROW'.

In order to support reshape and atomic removal of spares from containers
we need to prevent mdmon from activating spares. In the reshape case we
additionally need to freeze sync_action while the reshape transaction is
initiated with the kernel and recorded in the metadata.
When reshaping a raid0 array we need to freeze the array *before* it is
transitioned to a redundant raid level. Since sync_action does not exist
at this point we extend the '-' prefix of a subarray string to flag
mdmon not to activate spares.
Mdadm needs to be reasonably certain that the version of mdmon in the
system honors this 'freeze' indication. If mdmon is not already active
then we assume the version that gets started is the same as the mdadm
version. Otherwise, we check the version of mdmon as returned by the
extended ping_monitor() operation. This is to catch cases where mdadm
is upgraded in the filesystem, but mdmon started in the initramfs is
from a previous release.
