This is a bugfix/stability release over 3.1.2
Significant changes are: - mapfile now lives in a fixed location which default to
/dev/.mdadm/map but can be changed at compile time. This location is choses and most distros provide it during early boot and preserve it through. As long a /dev exists and is writable, /dev/.mdadm will be created. Other files file communication with mdmon live here too. This fixes a bug reported by Debian and Gentoo users where udev would spin in early-boot. - IMSM and DDF metadata will not be recognised on partitions as they should only be used on whole-disks. - Various overflows causes by 2G drives have been addressed. - A subarray of an IMSM contain can now be killed with --kill-subarray. Also subarrays can be renamed with --update-subarray - -If (or --incremental --fail) can be used from udev to fail and remove from all arrays a device which has been unplugged from the system. i.e. hot-unplug-support. - "mdadm /dev/mdX --re-add missing" will look for any device that looks like it should be a member of /dev/mdX but isn't and will automatically --re-add it - Now compile with -Wextra to get extra warnings. - Lots of minor bug fixes, documentation improvements, etcc
Please signoff both arches, greetings tpowa anyone?
