Subject: [PATCH 1007/1008] mdadm: allow any valid minor number in md device
name
Since 25aa732 ("mdadm: numbered names verification"), it is not possible
any more to create arrays /dev/md${N} with N >= 127. The limit has later
been increased to 1024, which is also artificial. The error message printed
by mdadm is misleading, as the problem is not POSIX compatibility here.
# mdadm -C -v /dev/md9999 --name=foo -l1 -n2 /dev/loop0 /dev/loop1
mdadm: Value "/dev/md9999" cannot be set as devname. Reason: Not POSIX
compatible.
Given that mdadm creates an array with minor number ${N} if the argument is
/dev/md${N}, the natural limit for the number is the highest minor number
available, which is (1 << MINORBITS) with MINORBITS=20 on Linux.
Fixes: 25aa732 ("mdadm: numbered names verification")
Fixes: f786072 ("mdadm: Increase number limit in md device name to 1024.")
