1/ if homehost matches, then we need to set trustworthy to 'LOCAL'
2/ if we decide to set trustworthy to 'METADATA' because we have to
use the metadata version name, do that *after* we have checked if
we are going to assemble within a container, as inside the
container there could be different sources of names to use.

Currently Incremental_container is being called after adding each disk.
In the imsm case where spares are not tracked in the raid_disks field we
can use --no-degraded to block premature assembly.

Just like the Assemble case, default to the text_version of the
container if another name is not specified.

It is possible for some arrays to be created e.g. by initrd, and so
not get mentioned in /var/run/mdadm/map.
As "-I" depends on things being listed in 'map', we create it by
scanning all devices if it doesn't exist.

If udev hasn't created the array yet, we might still want to
open it. So open directly by major:minor.
Also, of array in map file doesn't appear to exist, do use
the name associated with it.

Factor out, from Incremental_container, the code for assembling an
array based on information extracted from a container. We will
shortly use this from Assemble too.

When a 'container' gets started, we need udev to notice, but the
kernel has no way of knowing that a KOBJ_CHANGE event is needed. So
send one directly via the 'uevent' sysfs attribute.
Also, uevents don't get generated when md arrays are stopped (prior to
2.6.28) so send 'change' events then too.

When mdadm.conf is automatically generated, we might not know a
suitable /dev/name. But we do know the uuid of the container.
So allow that as an option.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
i.e. in mdadm.conf you can have a line like
ARRAY uuid=whatever
and it will use auto-name-generation to give a name to the array at
assemble-time. The is different from blind auto-assembly in that the
array will be treated as 'local'.
This reflect that fact that more often than not it is creating things
in /dev, and allows for a new open_mddev which does just that.

It doesn't really make sense for the --auto setting to ever over-ride
the setting on an ARRAY line. That could cause failure if the
ARRAY line has a 'standard' now. So revert to the array line having
precedence over command line, then CREATE line last.

If a foreign (i.e. not known to be local) array is discovered
by --incremental assembly, we now assemble it. However we ignore
any name information in the array so as not to potentially create
a name that conflict with a 'local' array.
Also, foreign arrays are always assembled 'read-auto' to avoid writing
anything until the array is actually used.

If incremental assembly finds an array mentioned in mdadm.conf,
with a 'standard partitioned' name like /dev/md_d0 or /dev/md/d0,
it will not create a partitioned array like it should.
This is because it mishandled the 'devnum' returned by
is_standard.
That is a devnum that does not have the partition-or-not encoded
into it. So we need to check the actual return value of
is_standard and encode the partition-or-not info into the devnum.
Also fix a couple of comments.

RAID10 is the only raid level that uses the avail char array pointer
during the enough() operation, so it was the only one that saw this.
The code in incremental assumes unconditionally that count_active will
allocate the avail char array, that it might be used by enough, and that
it will need to be freed afterward. Once you make count_active actually
do that, then the oops goes away.

When -I get a new device for a container and tries to incrementally
assemble the container array, it calls sysfs_set_array to create the
array without first checking if it already exists. This produces
unpleasant error messages.
So check first.

For now, this means that the lack of a homehost doesn't always prevent
assembly.
Soon we will allow assembly anyway, but have different messages if
homehost isn't supported.

should add that to a container, creating if it needed,
and then try to assemble any arrays in the container.

When we assemble an array, there are three different approaches
depending on whether metadata is internal or external, and on
kernel version.
Move all this to a common helper instead of duplicating in 3 places.

The variety of approaches to 'add_disk' are factored out into
a separate function, and Incremental mode benefits by being
closer to supporting the assembly of containers.
Also remove the adding-to-array-data-structure out of sysfs_add_disk
and into add_disk.
And add some tests for --incremental mode to make sure we don't break it.

'container_member' isn't really a well defined concept.
Each metadata might enumerate members differently, so just
let each format /mdX/YYYY as appropriate.
Some kernel versions don't put a space between 'active' and '(auto-read-only)'
in /proc/mdstat. This causes a parsing problem leaving 'level' set to
NULL which causes a crash.
So synthesise a space there if it is missing, and check for 'level' to
be NULL and don't de-ref if it is.
