Description of problem: IMSM OROM/EFI limits number of volumes per controller. Volumes above the limit are blocked in OROM. mdadm should follow OROM limitations in this area. Therefore we need to count number of volumes on the devices attached to SATA (ahci driver) or SAS (isci) controller. Adding a new volume must be blocked if the number of volumes on devices attached to the given controller is exceeded. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mdadm 3.2.3 Additional info: This feature is implemented by the series of three patches in Neil's repo: imsm: load_super_imsm_all function refactoring commit: 9587c3739b6d6edc7abfa4a655b9ab46926abdbf link: http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm;a=commitdiff;h=9587c3739b6d6edc7abfa4a655b9ab46926abdbf imsm: load_imsm_super_all supports loading metadata from the device list commit: ec50f7b6bb3a5218b51e1a953d530ef6b446bcd4 link: http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm;a=commitdiff;h=ec50f7b6bb3a5218b51e1a953d530ef6b446bcd4 imsm: validate the number of imsm volumes per controller commit: ca9de185a3b96720adcc5120f6a34c5f9bb98b3f link: http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm;a=commitdiff;h=ca9de185a3b96720adcc5120f6a34c5f9bb98b3f

Lukasz, I missed a patch in the update? Note 0e7f69a873ac7dc24f696d15b2f01d474df26395 is included in the 3.2.5 release, so it should be covered by the latest errata. Cheers, Jes
