Subject: [PATCH] fix extended partition detection
Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 18:54:06 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110125025303.18675.61317.stgit@localhost6.localdomain6> (raw)

# mdadm --detail --export /dev/md127p1

Before:
MD_LEVEL=raid5
MD_DEVICES=4
MD_METADATA=0.90

After:
MD_LEVEL=raid5
MD_DEVICES=4
MD_CONTAINER=/dev/md0
MD_MEMBER=0
MD_UUID=55746a20:925d24a7:4f9bd7e2:9c9a411f

We parse the symlink target with a format:

../../block/mdXXX/mdXXXpYY

...and need the second '/' from the end of the string to read detect a
'md' device.

[ sorry for any duplicates or triplicates, I failed to notice that my
  MTA was misconfigured after an upgrade to F13, and all my mail from
  stgit was getting rejected externally. ] 

If there are any 3.1.x stable releases planned I would consider this a 
candidate as it allows custom name partitions to be created by udev 
(like /dev/md/vol1p1).  I believe this was masked by the usage of mdp 
devices.

On 3.2 it exposes a segfault as we try to get the container_content() 
of 'mbr' metadata.
