Changelog
mdadm (4.2+20230508-6ubuntu1) mantic; urgency=medium
* Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
- d/control, d/mdadm.install, d/local/finalrd/mdadm.finalrd:
Ship finalrd hook
- d/local/initramfs-tools/init-top/00_mount_efivarfs:
Mount efivarfs during initramfs boot phase
* d/mdadm.maintscript: Keep Ubuntu prior-versions until after
the release of 24.04
* Dropped changes, included in Debian:
- Do not install mdadm-shutdown.service on Ubuntu.
- Drop broken and unused init scripts in favor of native systemd units,
which can cause failure to reconfigure mdadm package under certain
confiment types.
- Drop /etc/cron.d/mdadm and migrate to systemd mdcheck_start|continue
timer units.
- Drop /etc/cron.daily/mdadm and migrate to system mdmonitor-oneshot
timer unit.
- mdcheck_start.timer configures the mdcheck on a first sunday of the
month, with a randomized start delay of up to 24h, and runs for at
most 6h. mdcheck_continue.timer kicks off daily, with a randomized
start delay of up to 12h, and continues mdcheck for at most 6h.
- mdmonitor-oneshot.timer runs daily, with a randomized start delay of
up to 24h.
- One can use systemd drop-ins to change .timer units timings, set
environmental variables to decrease/increase the length of checking,
or start the checks by hand. Previously used checkarray is still
available, albeit not used by timer units.
- Above ensures that previous daily / monthly checks are performed, but
are randomized, such that performance is not as impacted across a
cluster of machines.
- Honor the debconf daily autoscan setting in the systemd timer.
- d/p/mdcheck-fix-empty-spaces-in-timer-unit-files.patch:
- The spaces were causing a FTBFS situation, triggered by
dh_installsystemd not finding units.
- Mention mdmonitor-oneshot.service instead of /etc/cron.daily/mdadm
in /etc/default/mdadm
