From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: NeilBrown Subject: [PATCH 000 of 3] md: Introduction Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2006 17:02:01 +1100 Message-ID: <20060202165638.15890.patches@notabene> Return-path: Sender: linux-raid-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Andrew Morton Cc: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-raid.ids Three patches for 2.6.lastest. All should go in 2.6.16. One won't apply against -rc1-git5 as it fixes a bug in a patch in -mm that hasn't quite got to -linus yes. They are mostly little fixes. I've been doing some more testing, particularly creating a raid1 over 2 6TB arrays. This requires version-1 superblocks, so they have had a bit more testing too. (No, I didn't try to resync the 6TB raid1. I created it --assume-clean and gave it a write-intent bitmap so a full resync would never be needed. If one side died, a recovery would take ages!!!! but for me it was only an experiment, not a serious configuration). (You will need mdadm-2.3 if you too want a 6TB raid1). [PATCH 001 of 3] md: Handle overflow of mdu_array_info_t->size better. [PATCH 002 of 3] md: Assorted little md fixes: [PATCH 003 of 3] md: Make sure rdev->size gets set for version-1 superblocks.
