Neil,
What is the status of the major for the partitionable arrays ?
automatically determined at runtime.
I see that it is 254, which is in the experimental section, according to
the official Linux device list (http://www.lanana.org/docs/device-list/).
Will there be an official registration ?
No. Is there any need?
I got this question in mind when I saw that mkfs.xfs source code was
referring to the MD major to tune its parameters on an MD device, while
it ignores MDP devices.
If there were reasons to register MD, wouldn't they apply to MDP too ?
Regards,
Hubert
