Hi, Jes;
Mainly added the suggestions from v1. I'm awared that these patches
maybe still to improve, draft them just from my understanding. I would
improve for any defect, and thanks for your patience to point out.
Still need ideas about testdev():
- Now the 'test' has supported new arguments like --disks= to test physical
devices, but testdev() in all cases was designed by loop mode, we should
decide whether or not the 'disk' mode also supports the testdev() testing.
Currently, I have ignored the testdev() testing and make it 'return 0' if
has set --dev=disk mode in this patch version.
For --raidtype:
- I have devided the raid levels to
raid0|linear|raid1|raid456|raid10|ddf|imsm
For --disks:
- It supports user to specify physical devices as follow.
Example: ./test --dev=disk --disks=/dev/sda{5..16} or
./test --dev=disk --disks=/dev/sd{a..m}
Changes from v1:
- Refactor and improve all functions of test 'script'.
- Add --raidtype argument to support testing different raid
level cases.
- Add --disks argument to support testing physical devices
v1 mail-tree:
[PATCH 0/3] mdadm/test: Refactor the codes of 'test' script
RFC patch mail-tree:
[PATCH RFC] test: revise 'test' and make it easier to understand
Thanks very much,
