11 | mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring | |
12 | device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also | |
13 | known as Software RAID arrays. | |
14 | ||
15 | Release 2.3.1 primarily fixes a few compile problems with 2.3. Though | |
16 | there are some functionality changes, they are extremely minor and you | |
17 | probably won't notice them. | |
18 | ||
19 | Changelog Entries: | |
20 | - Fixed -O2 compile so I could make and RPM. | |
21 | - Type cast number to be printed %llu so it compiles on 64bit | |
22 | machines. (Thanks Luca). | |
23 | - Stop using asm/byteorder.h - to make Redhat happy :-( | |
24 | - Require bitmap files to have a '/' in their name. | |
25 | - Error-check a few syscalls - code from SuSE package. | |
26 | ||
27 | Development of mdadm is sponsored by | |
28 | SUSE Labs, Novell Inc. | |
