Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 3.1.4 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
|
|
|
|
I am pleased to announce the availability of
|
|
mdadm version 3.1.4
|
|
|
|
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

|
|
|
|
This is a bugfix/stability release over 3.1.3.
|
|
3.1.3 had a couple of embarrasing regressions and a couple of other
|
|
issues surfaces which had easy fixes so I decided to make a 3.1.4
|
|
release after all.
|
|
|
|
Two fixes related to configs that aren't using udev:
|
|
- Don't remove md devices which 'standard' names on --stop
|
|
- Allow dev_open to work on read-only /dev
|
|
And fixed regressions:
|
|
- Allow --incremental to add spares to an array
|
|
- Accept --no-degraded as a deprecated option rather than
|
|
throwing an error
|
|
- Return correct success status when --incrmental assembling
|
|
a container which does not yet have enough devices.
|
|
- Don't link mdadm with pthreads, only mdmon needs it.
|
|
- Fix compiler warning due to bad use of snprintf
|
|
- Fix spare migration
|
|
|
|
This release is believed to be stable and you should feel free to
|
|
upgrade to 3.1.4
|
|
|
|
It is expected that the next release will be 3.2 with a number of new
|
|
features.
