Subject: open_mddev: open RDONLY if RDWR doesn't work.
X-Git-Tag: mdadm-3.1.5~36
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=abe7250bc70d938f21ccdf0d7686feb39561fe7f;p=thirdparty%2Fmdadm.git

open_mddev: open RDONLY if RDWR doesn't work.

If an array is read-only then "mdadm -S"
cannot open it to stop it without this fix.
