From: Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@xxxxxxxxxx> Hi, It's been an ongoing issue for a while trying to figure out how to handle launching mdmon from the initrd in Fedora and avoid it getting killed by systemd due to it ending up in the wrong cgroup (udev). We tried simply attaching mdmon to the cgroup of systemd but it didn't really work, and in the end it seems to be more in line with the systemd mentality to have systemd spawn it. With these patches and a few pending changes to dracut, I am finally able to boot and reboot systems with 1 or 2 IMSM arrays. The patch for systemctl is implemented as a compile time option rather than a command line option, since I think it is something that the distro will decide. However we can make it a command line option if preferred. I also have matching systemd .service files for this, which I am happy to contribute, but I am not sure if they are useful to other distros or not? We haven't had a history of including .service files with mdadm. Cheers, Jes Jes Sorensen (2): Add support for launching mdmon via systemctl instead of fork/exec execl() only returns in case of error Makefile | 6 ++++++ mdmon.c | 4 +++- util.c | 15 ++++++++++++++- 3 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) -- 1.7.11.7 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
