hi folks--
i was speaking with phcoder today on #grub, about getting messages like
this from grub when a partition that is part of a Linux SW RAID set
(with metadata 0.9x) is close to the end of its containing block device:
superfluous RAID member (2 found)
Here's phcoder's explanation of the problem:
> 16:08 < phcoder> if you have < 64KiB between end of disk and end of partition

It sounds like there might be some circumstances (e.g. a RAID0 set of
sda and sdb, creating md0, and a partition table on top of md0) where it
is legitimately difficult to decide the correct interpretation.
However, i think there might be a reasonable heuristic that can be used
in the case of RAID1 sets that would avoid the ambiguity (and the scary
messages/warnings to the user:
Select the smallest known block device that can completely enclose the
RAID member. The larger block device(s) should not be considered to be
exporting that RAID.
these heuristics would mean that RAID1 sets with 0.9x metadata on any
sort of disklabel would only have their member components show up once
during a scan, rather than treating them as a duplicate.
phcoder mentioned that the RAID code was undergoing something of an
overhaul. perhaps these heuristics could play into that update?
I'm not sure how to address it with RAID0 or RAID10, but if we could fix
the RAID1 case, that would be a big win for a lot of users.

hrm, i get a segmentation fault from "grub-probe /" even without this
patch when building from bzr trunk (r3964, i think).
The test machine i've set up looks like this uses a common layering

Applying the patch doesn't help me avoid the segfault.

phcoder pointed me to the attached patch for improved heuristics for
this case, which applies cleanly to the current head of bzr. Applied,
it removes the spurious error messages from grub-probe, as seen here
compared against debian's grub-probe 1.99-14:
0 root@trash:/home/dkg/src/grub/grub# grub-probe --target=device /
error: found two disks with the index 1 for RAID md0.
error: superfluous RAID member (2 found).
/dev/mapper/vg_trash0-root
0 root@trash:/home/dkg/src/grub/grub# ./grub-probe --target=device /
/dev/mapper/vg_trash0-root
0 root@trash:/home/dkg/src/grub/grub#
I think it's worth applying.
Thanks for your work on this, phcoder!

I just built the latest (r4008) bzr head, which i believe includes the

it boots correctly on this setup, yay!
booting to the grub command line, however, i do see some weirdness:
grub> ls
(lvm/vg_trash0-root) (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd1,msdos1)
(fd0) (lvm/vg_trash0-root)
grub> insmod mdraid09
grub> ls
(lvm/vg_trash0-root) (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1) (hd1,msdos1)
(fd0) (md/md0) (md/md0,msdos2) (md/md0,msdos1) (lvm/vg_trash0-root)
grub> rmmod mdraid09
grub> ls
(md/md0) (lvm/vg_trash0-root) (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1)
(hd1,msdos1) (fd0) (md/md0)
grub> insmod mdraid09
grub> ls
(md/md0) (lvm/vg_trash0-root) (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) (hd1)
