+ initramfs, that systemd-shutdown can pivot to. This may result in an
+ improved shutdown behaviour with less hangs and synced raid
+ arrays. The generated initramfs will takeover mdmon monitoring, wait
+ for the arrays to be clean before stopping them and unmounting
+ everything and finally executing requested shutdown command.

+mdadm (3.2.5-4+mdmon) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ * fix `/etc/init.d/mdadm-raid status' inverse logic (Closes: #686100)
+ * /etc/init.d/mdadm: change RUNDIR to /run instead of /var/run.
+ Mdadm itself uses /run internally, we properly depend on initscripts
+ version which creates /run, and the initscript itself is started
+ after local_fs is processed, so this is merely a no-op, but let's
+ do it for consistency.
+ * Fix 'enough' function for RAID10, to prevent starting of a RAID10
+ array which does not have required minimum of component devices.
+ (Closes: #691668).
+ * fix segfaults in Detail() - mdadm --detail may segfault if a drive
+ has been removed from the array (Closes: #691670)
+ * super0: do not override uuid with homehost. The bug prevented
+ re-creating an array with v0.90 superblock with the specified uuid
+ when homehost is also specified. (Closes: #686703)
+ * several fixes for mdmon argument processing (Closes: #691671):
+ - allow --takeover when original was started with --offroot
+ - fix arg parsing.
+ - fix arg processing for -a
+ * Changes based on a patch by Miquel van Smoorenburg (Closes: #684708):
+ - install mdmon in udeb and initramfs, so imsm arrays can work.
+ mdadm runs mdmon automatically when needed (currently for imsm
+ arrays), and mdmon is required to make such arrays read-write
+ (they're read-only by default) so merely presence of mdmon is
+ enough to be able to use imsm arrays.
+ - /etc/init.d/mdadm start: if a mdmon pidfile is found in /run/mdadm,
+ restart mdmon (--takeover --all)
+ - /etc/init.d/mdadm stop: link pidfiles of mdmon processes into
+ /run/sendsigs.omit.d, and make sure that happens before sendsigs runs.
+ - stop mdadm before sendsigs, so that the above code works
+ - add script mdadm-waitidle that runs just before reboot/halt.
+ For each array that is still running, it sets sync_action to idle,
+ and uses mdadm --wait-clean to wait for all arrays to go idle
+ (it has a short timeout).

+ * Send udev events for arrays assembled by the mdadm-raid init.d script.
+ This does not close #394193 but it's a good addition anyway. I am not
+ sending these events from the initramfs as well because it would be
+ non-trivial to ensure that an event doesn't get sent twice for a given

+ brought up by mdadm from initramfs during boot (closes: #385017).
+ * Added bootloader/cmdline info to bugscript so that future bug reports via
+ bug/reportbug include information on how the system is booted with respect
+ to RAID (the root partition).
+ * If mdadm is being configured in a chroot, it now defaults to starting all
+ arrays from the initial ramdisk, rather than trying to figure out the root
+ MD array (we're using /proc information, so it would be the one of the
+ host, not the one of the chroot) (closes: #386468).
+ * Added LSB headers to init scripts.
+ * Reworked the documentation with respect to the use of "MD" and "RAID", and

+
+ * Allow ARRAY lines in configuration file to break across lines
+ (closes: #384222).
+ * Improved initramfs hook; now does not rely on initramfs to provide RAID
+ assembly:
+ - if a checked mdadm.conf file is present, use that.
+ - if an unchecked mdadm.conf is present, create a temporary one
+ - if that fails, use the unchecked one iff it contains at least one
+ ARRAY statement. Otherwise rely on auto-generation from the initramfs
+ during the book (and hope for the best).
+ - if no mdadm.conf is found, create one on the fly
+ - if that fails, hope that the auto-generation will work during boot
+ * Improved the messages printed by the initramfs script.
+ * Do not store the debconf answer for whether arrays not listed in the
+ configuration file should be used.
+ * Now asks again for the devices to start (preseeded with 'all') if the user
+ does not want to proceed with devices not listed in the configuration
+ file.

+mdadm (2.5.3.git200608202239-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Tracking upstream git releases.
+ - now the --run switch behaves as stated in the manpage. This properly
+ fixes #287415
+ - new version-1 partitionable arrays are now named X instead of _dX (e.g.
+ 0 instead of _d0) for device names like md_dX. I actually think this is
+ a bug and hope upstream will use dX (e.g. d0) instead in a future
+ version.
+ - we specify --symlink=no and thus disable the new feature to create
+ /dev/mdX symlinks to /dev/md/X devices until the entire device node mess
+ is cleared up. No need to introduce yet another complicating factor at
+ this stage.
+ * Instead of trying to do a whole lot of magic with respect to detecting
+ RAID devices to start, mdadm from now on requires a valid mdadm.conf file
+ to be installed. It still tries to do what it can, but there are no
+ heuristics anymore. See /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.upgrading-2.5.3 .
+ * Removed the zero-superblock warning because we require the user to sign
+ off the configuration file anyway.
+ * This also enables us to use mdadm.conf from the initial ramdisk and thus
+ closes: #381303.
+ * In case the user chooses to assemble all arrays from the initial ramdisk,
+ use the new homehost feature of mdadm (closes: #381057). This will start
+ only those arrays belonging to the local system, unless it is the first
+ run on a system, in which case it will start all arrays and mark them as
+ belonging to the local system.
+ * Improved the debconf control script: integrated error messages into the
+ frontends, and made it a bit smarter. Error messages can now be
+ translated, and the script checks whether the user's choice is listed in
+ the configuration file and only proceeds if it is, or the user chooses to
+ ignore that it is not.
+ * mkconf can now take a generate/force-generate parameter to write directly
+ to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf. A second parameter specifies an alternate
+ filename.
+ * mkconf now outputs comments for the settings it suggests.
+ * Removed all udev-related stuff. We must coexist with udev because there
+ are setups that assemble arrays without mdadm, so the device nodes must be
+ created by udev, if that is used.
+ (closes: #382263, #382450, #383688, #383891, #383806, #382480)
+ Staying at low urgency since these (RC) bugs only exist in unstable.
+ * Now installs MD modules and mdadm/mdrun into initial ramdisk regardless of
+ whether the hook script thinks there are devices to start. This was done
+ to enable recovery from the initramfs shell.
+ * Now uses 'MD' instead of 'RAID' consistently in all messages.
+ * Now rebuilds initramfs for all installed kernels.
+ * Now breaks the endless config loop only when the user does not see the
+ question (see #381284, #381007).
+ * Don't fail mdadm-raid when /dev is on a read-only filesystem
+ (closes: #382876).

+mdadm (2.5.2-10) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Applied patch by upstream to fix the logic of the --run switch (see
+ #287415). Thus also reverted the mdadm-raid hack used to fix the bug in
+ the 2.5.2-9 upload.
+ * Recognise devfs-style device nodes by fixing a regression bug in the root
+ RAID autodetection code (closes: #381007), which was introduced as part of
+ the fix for #380596 in the 2.5.2-9 upload. The bug is RC, but it only
+ applies to unstable right now, so I am not pumping up the urgency.
+ The autodetection code now doesn't care about the actual name of the array
+ device, but instead only insists that it exists, is a block device, and
+ recognised as an array by mdadm (mdadm --detail).
+ * Added safety net to prevent endless loops in RAID autodetection. Now just
+ falls back to starting all arrays from the initramfs if it fails to
+ determine an acceptable array for the / filesystem in three tries
+ (closes: #381284, also see #381007).
+ * Added udev rules file to prevent udev from ever creating md device nodes,
+ which can get in the way of mdadm (also see next item).
+ * Added a workaround to the initramfs hook to deal with the problem with
+ /dev/md/X device nodes when /dev/mdX is also present and version-0
+ superblocks are in use (closes: #381181).
+ * checkarray: correctly recognise when the kernel is too old for parity
+ checks, or when there are no redundant arrays present (closes: #380746).
+ * checkarray: now supports -s|--status switch to query parity check status
+ for given devices.
+ * checkarray: now supports -x|--cancel switch to cancel running checks.
+ * mkconf: now also outputs 'MAILADDR root' and 'HOMEHOST <system>'.
+ * Added README.checkarray with some information about the check process.
+ * Added /usr/share/doc/mdadm/FAQ to answer some FAQs.

+ * Moved detection of RAID devices from initramfs hook to debconf control

+ should be started early in the boot sequence. For the cases where we
+ failed to auto-detect previously (e.g. root on LVM on RAID), it's paranoid

+mdadm (1.9.0-2.2) unstable; urgency=high
+
+ * Non-maintainer upload.
+ * High-urgency upload for sarge targeted RC bugfix.
+ * Move mdadm-raid back to S25 as it needs to run after modules have been
+ loaded at S20 (see followups to #294404, #301560).
+ * Verified that Steve Langasek's patch to config.c (see item 4 of the
+ 1.9.0-2.1 changelog) is necessary for `mdadm -A -s` to work.
+ (closes: #301560)
+ * Integrated patch by Erik van Konijnenburg to fix mdadm's --auto
+ option in the presence of --scan.
+ (closes: #294404, #273182, #284028, #310126).
+ * Modified mdrun to call mdadm with --auto in assembly mode. Removed code
+ which would auto-create 24 device nodes during system startup when udev
+ was used.
+ * Fixed next_free_md function in mdrun to iterate all 24 nodes instead of
+ using some fragile shell globbing, which did not work anyway.
+ * Prevent postinst node creation when udev is being used.
+ * Added a README.udev file to /usr/share/doc/mdadm.

+ * Fix mdadm --scan to prefer the values contained in /proc/partitions,
+ instead of picking up device node names at random from /dev.
+ * Teach mdrun to look at /dev/.static/dev instead of /.dev for udev
+ mounts requiring autostart (closes: #301560).
