Let's remove them.
Thanks,

Hi Song,
Great idea!
Please note that there are mdadm tests for those levels. I can approve it only
when mdadm clean-up is merged. Our tests must pass continuously.
It is a nice code complexity improvement so let me know if you would
like to get my help with mdadm patches.
Thanks,
Mariusz

Is the continuous test result available publicly?

On my local tests with mdadm, I need to make changes to the following
tests:
00linear...
00names...
00raid0...
00readonly...
02lineargrow...
03r0assem...
04r0update...
04update-metadata...
The changes are all straightforward (just remove things related to
linear/multipath/faulty).
Thanks,
Song

We are working on public CI (Paul owns it). On my side I'm not executing all
tests, IMSM only. In this case it is obvious that mdadm tests will stop passing,
I don't need results to see that. We should keep both mdadm and md compatible.
We are continuously adding new MD regression tests to mdadm (at least Kuai is
doing that) so we should also care about removing things.

Please do not forgot remove dead code from mdadm. For example simple find
"multipath" (case insensitive) reefers me to multiple places with special
handling for this level. We need to remove it from code and documentation.
Can you handle this too?
Oh and last one, I can't find update for md man in your changes. Could you
please remove those levels from md man?
Thanks,

I think this is a bigger discussion: will mdadm stop supporting these
flavors on
older kernels? Say, mdadm-5.0+ (or a different number) will not support
multipath flavor on older kernels?

man side is easier. Once we know which major will have this set (6.8 or later),
we can update the man pages with the information.

Good point, I forgot that we are keeping backward compatibility with old
kernels. Currently 3.10 is the lowest one supported so agree, we need to keep
this code. Thanks for clarifying!

Understood!
No further questions, please just remove tests and eventually add warning when
creating those levels in mdadm i.e "Linear/Multipath/Faulty are deprecated and
will be removed in next releases".

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 849d18e27be9a125 ("md:
Remove deprecated CONFIG_MD_LINEAR") upstream.

Is this what you need to recover data from disks salvaged from a
commercial NAS configured in JBOD mode?
If yes, and there is no better way to do that, you probably do not
want to drop this support. Actual NAS systems running Linux might
use this as well.

Thanks for the heads-up. I honestly don't know about this use case.
Where can I find/get more information about it?
Thanks,
Song

What NAS uses md linear?
Either way you can always set up a dm-linear table to get at the
data.

Or just boot an older kernel... Seems like a bit of a contrived use
case to cater to.

No idea, I was just wondering....
Lots of NASes sold support JBOD (yes, I know I should not use anything
that lacks mirroring for data I care about ;-)

If dm-linear offers the same functionality, I have no objection.
Note to self: learn about the difference between dm and md, finally...
