Package: mdadm Version: 2.5.6-9 Severity: important I'm not sure if these should be regarded as two issues. Please let me know.
First, we have in /etc/rc[06].d: S50lvm S50mdadm-raid either: - lvm is tried to be stopped first (as L precedes M), or - lvm and mdadm-raid are stopped concurrently :-O Neither is good. Now, when all three (raid->luks->lvm) are used (in that order on top of each other), we have: S48cryptdisks S50lvm S50mdadm-raid S59cryptdisks-early MDs cannot be unmounted before cryptdisks are gone, and cryptdisks cannot go before lvm is gone (Bug #363007 addressed a similar case between lvm and luks, which introduced the cryptdisks-early script.) Suppose we move S50mdadm-raid to S60mdadm-raid, then on shutdown/reboot, we would have: S48cryptdisks S49lvm S59cryptdisks-early S60mdadm-raid which is fine in any case. This collides with S60umountroot, but that is no problem, as we can never really umount root, whether it is on an md-device or not. Of course, this does not work if the MD layer is used somewhere in between (like luks->raid->lvm), but who would want that? ;-) This solution would remedy both problems. That is why I'm reporting this as a bug in mdadm, feel free to change this. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages mdadm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.11etch1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii makedev 2.3.1-83 creates device files in /dev Versions of packages mdadm recommends: ii module-init-tools 3.3-pre4-2 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii postfix [mail-transport-agent 2.3.8-2+b1 A high-performance mail transport -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
