Subject: [PATCH] Revert "mdadm: fix coredump of mdadm --monitor -r"
Date: Wed,  9 Feb 2022 07:42:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220209124244.3466068-1-ncroxon@redhat.com> (raw)

This reverts commit 546047688e1c64638f462147c755b58119cabdc8.

mdadm: fix msg when removing a device using the short arg -r

The change from commit mdadm: fix coredump of mdadm
--monitor -r broke the printing of the return message when
passing -r to mdadm --manage, the removal of a device from
an array.

If the current code reverts this commit, both issues are
still fixed.

The original problem reported that the fix tried to address
was:  The --monitor -r option requires a parameter,
otherwise a null pointer will be manipulated when
converting to integer data, and a core dump will appear.

The original problem was really fixed with:
60815698c0a Refactor parse_num and use it to parse optarg.
Which added a check for NULL in 'optarg' before moving it
to the 'increments' variable.

New issue: When trying to remove a device using the short
argument -r, instead of the long argument --remove, the
output is empty. The problem started when commit 
546047688e1c was added.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create/assemble /dev/md0 device
2. mdadm --manage /dev/md0 -r /dev/vdxx

Actual results:
Nothing, empty output, nothing happens, the device is still
connected to the array.

The output should have stated "mdadm: hot remove failed
for /dev/vdxx: Device or resource busy", if the device was
still active. Or it should remove the device and print
a message:

# mdadm --set-faulty /dev/md0 /dev/vdd
mdadm: set /dev/vdd faulty in /dev/md0
# mdadm --manage /dev/md0 -r /dev/vdd
mdadm: hot removed /dev/vdd from /dev/md0


The following commit should be reverted as it breaks
mdadm --manage -r.
