Patch is caused by changes in mdadm - now mdmonitor is relying on udev events instead of pooling changes on /proc/mdstat file. This change gave possibility to send events to the userspace. Now, more events will be read by mdmonitor, but mechanism of getting details of the event will remain the same - all devices have to be scanned on new event and their parameters read. It can be changed by adding environmental data, which will fully describe this uevent, as Kuai suggested. This change needs to be analyzed and planned, because it requires a lot of work in md and design changes in mdmonitor - to stop scanning all of the devices on new event and read uevent details directly from udev. Mariusz will take care of this topic, and follow up on this later. Paul, the test suite which was used is internal and checks if mdmonitor has noticed expected events. For now there is no plan for adding test, which checking events to mdadm.
