[Bug 968074] Re: Partitionable raid ignored by 65-mdadm-blkid.rules

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package mdadm - 3.2.5-1ubuntu0.2

---------------
mdadm (3.2.5-1ubuntu0.2) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * Patch udev-md-raid.rules to not auto-start arrays based on detection
    of ddf or isw (imsm) signatures; this conflicts with dmraid usage in
    precise and requires more analysis before it can be enabled in SRU.
    LP: #1030292.

mdadm (3.2.5-1ubuntu0.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * Stable Micro Point Bug Fix release:
    - SRU master bug (LP: #1009973)
    - Fixes segfault upon update-initramfs (LP: #969384)
    - Fixes does not allow internal bitmap on version 1.2 arrays (LP: #1022915)
  * Preserved previous behaviour, by reverting:
    - bitmap chunk size of 0 will continue to mean 512B
    - Modify the below fix, to accept previous syntax
      "b10c663 config: fix handing of 'homehost' in AUTO line."
  * Use upstream version of udev rules, instead of three slightly
    different ubuntu udev rules (LP: #968074) (LP: #1002357)
  * Add missing mdmon utility. This enables external metadata RAID
    formats: DDF and Intel Matrix Storage Management (IMSM). (LP: #957494)
  * Copy udev rule from /etc/udev/rules.d/ as well as the
    /lib/udev/rules.d/, to allow local administrator to override mdadm
    rules file (LP: #1017407)
  * debian/initramfs/local-premount: add call wait_for_udev to wait a
    little longer for RAID devices to appear. This improves
    boot reliability. (LP: #942106)

mdadm (3.2.5-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Michael Tokarev ]
  * new upstream (bugfix) release, fixing regression when --add'ing
    device to an array, introduced in 3.2.4, plus other minor fixes
    (Closes: #673104, #673344)
  * new patch: sha1-includes.diff to fix #include mess in new sha1.h
  * added a check into debian/checkarray to skip checking arrays created
    less than 2 weeks ago (Closes: #624273)

  [ Dmitrijs Ledkovs ]
  * Remove obsolete documentation dating back to ~etch release
  * Remove reference to obsolete documention from debconf templates
  * Update debconf templates translations
  * Remove compatability with acient initramfs-tools
  * Remove debian-specific mdadm-startall.8 in clean target

mdadm (3.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * new upstream (bugfix) release (Closes: #664088, #661552)
  * removed debian-run-udev.diff (applied upstream), and
    all RUNDIR handling from debian/rules (it is the default now)
  * add build-arch and build-indep targets to debian/rules, and
    bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3

mdadm (3.2.3-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * switch from topgit to plain 3.0 (quilt) layout, creating
    debian/patches.  Don't build-depend on quilt as patching
    is done automatically by dpkg-source.
  * debian/patches/debian-run-udev.diff by Roger Leigh (Closes: #644319, #627774)
  * update debian/mdadm.logcheck.ignore.server to recognize "k" in
    addition of "blocks" in kernel messages.  Thanks to Frédéric Brière
    for the patch (Closes: #656038)

Title:
  Partitionable raid ignored by 65-mdadm-blkid.rules

Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “mdadm” source package in Precise:
  Fix Released
Status in “mdadm” source package in Quantal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [IMPACT]

   * Partitionable raid1 arrays following the /dev/md_d[0-9]* naming
  convention were ignored by the default udev settings.

   * Thus it prevents booting, if rootfs is on the partitioned RAID
  array, since that would never be assembled by udev rules

   * This is fixed by switching from dated Ubuntu udev rules, to the now
  shipped in the upstream udev rules

  [TESTCASE]

   * Add partitioned RAID1 to the system
   * Notice that it doesn't get assembled
   * Upgrade the package
   * Re-add partitioned RAID1 to the system
   * Notice that it does get assembled

  [Regression Potential]

   * The default udev rule has changed. Users who relied on the
  previous, incomplete/broken, behaviour may be pleasantly surprised or
  annoyed that  by-hand assembly of partitioned RAID arrays is not
  longer required.

   * System administrators need to check their /etc/udev/rules.d/ to
  make sure that (a) they do not override mdadm rules (b) if they do,
  check that those overrides are still needed (c) that the override is
  named to match the new udev rule name.
