---------------------------------------------------------------------

* Fri May 20 2005 Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@redhat.com> 1.0.0.rc8-FC4_2

- specfile change to build static and dynamic binray into one package

* Thu May 19 2005 Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@redhat.com> 1.0.0.rc8-FC4_1

- nv.c: fixed stripe size
- sil.c: avoid incarnation_no in name creation, because the Windows
driver changes it every time
- added --ignorelocking option to avoid taking out locks in early boot
where no read/write access to /var is given

* Wed Mar 16 2005 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>

- rebuilt

* Tue Mar 15 2005 Heinz Mauelshagen <heinzm@redhat.com> 1.0.0.rc6.1-4_FC4

- VIA metadata format handler
- added RAID10 to lsi metadata format handler
- "dmraid -rD": file device size into {devicename}_{formatname}.size
- "dmraid -tay": pretty print multi-line tables ala "dmsetup table"
- "dmraid -l": display supported RAID levels + manual update
- _sil_read() used LOG_NOTICE rather than LOG_INFO in order to
avoid messages about valid metadata areas being displayed
during "dmraid -vay".
- isw, sil filed metadata offset on "-r -D" in sectors rather than in bytes.
- isw needed dev_sort() to sort RAID devices in sets correctly.
- pdc metadata format handler name creation. Lead to
wrong RAID set grouping logic in some configurations.
- pdc RAID1 size calculation fixed (rc6.1)
- dos.c: partition table code fixes by Paul Moore
- _free_dev_pointers(): fixed potential OOB error
- hpt37x_check: deal with raid_disks = 1 in mirror sets
- pdc_check: status & 0x80 doesn't always show a failed device;
removed that check for now. Status definitions needed.
- sil addition of RAID sets to global list of sets
- sil spare device memory leak
- group_set(): removal of RAID set in case of error
- hpt37x: handle total_secs > device size
- allow -p with -f
- enhanced error message by checking target type against list of
registered target types

* Fri Jan 21 2005 Alasdair Kergon <agk@redhat.com> 1.0.0.rc5f-2

- Rebuild to pick up new libdevmapper.
