Description of problem: dmraid doesn't support the new dm-raid456 device-mapper wrapping target by Neil Brown/Jon Brassow which offers access to the MD RAID personalities, thus trying to activate RAID5 mappings with the dm-raid456 target will fail. Important! The current support for the dm-raid45 target module supported in RHEL6 and other distros (which ain't go upstream) _must_ stay in for backward compatibility. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dmraid-1.0.0.rc16-10.el6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove dm-raid45 target. 2. Have dm-raid456 target installed 3. Try activating any RAID5 set supported by dmraid (eg. isw) Actual results: Activation fails. Expected results: Activation succeeds. Additional info: THe enhancement involves additions to lib/activate/activate.c lib/events/libdmraid-events-isw.c lib/metadata/metadata.c lib/register/dmreg.c
