Deprecated MD Raid functionality
Issue
The following MD raid kernel modules have been marked deprecated in Red Hat Enterprise Linux:
- CONFIG_MD_LINEAR allows multiple drives to be concatenated end-to-end so that when a single member disk becomes full, data will be written to the next disk until all disks are full.
Linear (append) mode (CONFIG_MD_LINEAR)
alias: md-level--1
alias: md-linear
alias: md-personality-1
- CONFIG_MD_FAULTY module allows for a block device that occasionally returns read or write errors. It is useful for testing.
Faulty test module for MD (CONFIG_MD_FAULTY)
alias: md-level--5
alias: md-faulty
alias: md-personality-10
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 9.4+
