    9. UBUNTU: ubuntu: dm-raid4-5 -- (no-up) Export dm_disk function of device-mapper

      • Comments: Per the Precise review, the module is needed to activate RAID4 and RAID5 configurations with dmraid (package). This reads the meta-data created by BIOS supported soft-RAID implementations and creates device-mapper targets. Upstream indicated that the dm-raid45 module is seen as deprecated and dm-raid (a RAID 4/5/6 target) would be the replacement. However currently available versions of the user-space application do not support this. The difference between both targets is substantial from the point of table formats. This means to create a mapping with the new target the user-space side has to change substantially. So currently we will need to go with the old module.

      • Quantal review: mdadm may slowly take over. But at the time of writing there were still problems with that. Though even when mdadm does handle the Intel MSM and DDF formats, it is unclear whether that would cover all of the containers formats that dmraid supports. And as long as the user-space side exits it will rely on dm-raid45.

    5. Comments: Was kept in Precise per request 876030. henrix, you did some investigation on this driver? Is there an in-tree replacement, ie. is this still needed for Quantal?
