Hi Neil,

BTW, what's your plan of including "raid6check"
into a main release of "mdadm" package?

Do you have "deadline" in mind?

What exactly do you mean by that?
raid6check.c is already in the upstream git tree and was in mdadm-3.2.5.

Hi Neil, I was under the impression you were
holding back the patches from Robert (Buchholz).

Probably I was wrong.
 

Do you mean when will it be included by distros?  That is really up to them.
I could get "make install" to install it I guess.
I haven't really thought about what would be required for that.

I'll add it to my list of things to think about.

Well, that could be some thinking for 3.3, couldn't it? :-)

In any case, yes, it would be nice to force a bit
the hand of the distros by installing "raid6check" too.

Thanks,

bye,
