[PATCH/RFC] md: remove media-change code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



md only ever used the media-change interfaces to trigger a partition
rescan once the array became active.  Normally partition scan only
happens when the disk is first added, and with md the disk is typically
inactive when first added.

This rescan can now be achieved by simply setting GD_NEED_PART_SCAN.
So do that, and remove all the rescan.

This has the side effect of causing 'diskseq' to be stable for md devices.
Preciously diskseq would be incremented once the device became active
but no uevent would be generated to report this increment.  This was
confusing to systemd.
