Package: mdadm
Version: 3.4-1
Severity: important
Because of a peculiar bug in dash (0.5.8-2.2) reading from sysfs using the
read command, on my sysstem, line 145 of checkarray always fails with status
1, thus ending the script (set -e) and providing no hint to the
administrator (via cronjob output mail) that checks are not actually being
performed on schedule. Assuming it affects others, this is of course very
serious.
I can reproduce the shell bug easily enough at a /bin/sh prompt:
$ MDBASE=/sys/block/md126/md
$ cat $MDBASE/sync_ation
idle
$ read cur_status < $MDBASE/sync_ation
$ echo $?
1
$ echo $cur_status
i
The workaround for me is to use bash (start the script from the crontab
using bash). It works perfectly then.
