Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.3.1 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
I am pleased to announce the availability of
mdadm version 2.3.1
It is available at the usual places:
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
and
http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
known as Software RAID arrays.
Release 2.3.1 primarily fixes a few compile problems with 2.3. Though
there are some functionality changes, they are extremely minor and you
probably won't notice them.
Changelog Entries:
- Fixed -O2 compile so I could make and RPM.
- Type cast number to be printed %llu so it compiles on 64bit
machines. (Thanks Luca).
- Stop using asm/byteorder.h - to make Redhat happy :-(
- Require bitmap files to have a '/' in their name.
- Error-check a few syscalls - code from SuSE package.
Development of mdadm is sponsored by
SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
