MD_NAME is the name of the array extracted directly from the metadata.
MD_DEVNAME is the current working name of the array. It should appear
in /dev/md. It is possibly what the user gave when creating the
array.
We extract it from /var/run/mdadm/map.

We previously only updated /var/run/mdadm/map when starting an
array with --incremental. However we now make more use of
that file (to pass the dev name to udev) so always update it.

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'.
Change the "env_check_mdmon" function to be more generic, accepting
and environment variable name, as soon we will have a new use for it.

This delays the create_mddev call even further in the case where
an array device name is given for --assemble. It is now delayed
until the 'name' of the array is also available.
We will shortly be feeding more information into the process of
creating array devices, so delay the creation. Still open them
early if the device already exists.
This involves making sure the autof flag is in the right place
so that it can be found at creation time.
Also, Assemble, Build, and Create now always close 'mdfd'.

When
mdadm --assemble /dev/whatever
is given, mdadm will treat it as though '--scan' were given, even
though it wasn't.
In this case, the code opens /dev/whatever twice, which is pointless.
We already know /dev/whatever is open at this point, so remove the
'open' and the tests, and make sure it is always closed afterwards.

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.

There was a bug. If /var/run/mdadm/ did not exist as a directory,
the map file should have been created in /var/run/mdadm.map, but
due to bug it would never get created.

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.

From 2.6.28, normal md device will be able to have partitions. These
partitions will have a different major number. Sometimes mdadm tests
the major number and so can get confused.
Change these tests to test against get_mdp_major(). mdp does not use
extended minor number and so this test will always be accurate.
Also use /sys/dev links to map major/minor to devnum in sysfs.

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.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
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.

Certain operations (Detail.c mainly) would print out the metadata of
an array in a format that the scan operation in super0.c and super1.c
would later reject as unknown when it was found in the mdadm.conf file.
Use a consistent format, but also modify the super0 and super1 match
methods to accept the other format without complaint.

.UR URL
text
.UE
is meant to create a hyperlink from the 'text' to the 'URL'.
But I wanted just to have the URL, so UR isn't really the right
tool - the URL gets displayed twice.
So just display the URL in bold and assume man2html etc can recognise
it and do the right thing.

mdmon cannot remove the pidfile at shutdown becuase it needs to stay
running across the "mount -o remount,ro /" event. When it relaunches
after a reboot there is a good chance that the pid will match what was
there previously. The result is that the "take over for unresponsive
mdmon" logic results in self termination.

For raid rootfs we cannot run the array unmonitored for any length of
time. At least XFS will not mount/replay the journal if the underlying
block device is readonly (FIXME it also seems that XFS does not always
honor the ro status of the backing device as I was able to hit the
BUG_ON(mddev->ro == 1) in md_write_start... but I digress).
So we need to start mdmon in the initramfs before '/' is mounted and
then restart it after the real rootfs is available. Upon seeing the
--switch-root option, mdmon will kill any victims in the current
/var/run/mdadm directory and then chroot(2) before continuing.
The option is deliberately called 'switch-root' instead of 'chroot' to
hopefully indicate that this is different than doing "chroot mdmon
/dev/imsm".

Now that mdmon handles sigterm if another monitor wants to take over it
should wait until all managed arrays are clean. So make WaitClean()
available to mdmon and teach try_kill_monitor() to wait on each subarray
in the container.
...since we may be communicating with a dieing process, we need to
block SIGPIPE earlier.
Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
We generally don't want mdmon to be terminated, but if a SIGTERM gets
through try to leave the monitored arrays in a clean state, block
attempts to mark the array dirty, and stop servicing the socket.
When we are killed by sigterm don't remove the pidfile let that be
cleaned up by the next monitor.

Raid disk and disk number information is not relevant at the container

Assemble() time.
