The crash happens when I run "mdadm -If sda".
gdb tell me:

The super-disks list that get_imsm_dl_disk() looks through contains
sdc, sdd, sde, but not sda - so get_imsm_disk() returns NULL.
(the 4 devices I use are sda sdc sde sde).
 mdadm --examine of sda and sdc after the crash are below.
 mdmon debug output is below that.

Thanks,
