Utilility udisks is removed from udev upstream, calling this obsoleted
command in run_udisks() doesn't make any sense now.

This patch removes the calls chain of udisks, which includes routines
run_udisk(), force_remove(), and 2 locations where force_remove() are
called. Considering force_remove() is removed with udisks util, it is
fair to remove Manage_stop() inside force_remove() as well.

After force_remove() is not called anymore, if Manage_subdevs() returns
failure due to a busy array, nothing else to do. If the failure is from
a broken array and verbose information is wanted, a warning message will
be printed by pr_err().

Another place where we hard-coding array size. We already
addressed it (patch is waiting for internal regression), so please left it as is
for now. Just to let everyone know.

The codes above and below are almost the same now, can we move them to a
function?

I would prefer to reverse logic to make one indentation less (if that is
possible):
if (rv != 0)
    goto end;
but it is fine anyway.

Broken is defined in sysfs_array_states[], can we use it?
if (map_name(sysfs_array_states, buf) == ARRAY_BROKEN)
I know that it could looks like a little overhead but compiler should do
the job here.

Not exactly, The broken may be raised even if disk is removed. It is a case for
raid456 and raid1/10 with fail_last_dev=1. I would say just "%s is in broken
state.\n" 
Should be exclude arrays which are already broken (broken was set before we
called mdadm -If)? I don't see printing this message everytime as a problem, but
it is something you should consider.

And I forgot to say it eariler, could you consider adding test/s for both IMSM and native?
It is something that should be tested.
Sorry, scope is growing :(

Thanks,
Mariusz

Yes, I agree. It should be good to do one thing in each patch. The hard-coding
array size should be addressed in another patch series.

There is a little difference on calling sysfs_init(), the second location
doesn’t call sysfs_init(). It is possible to use a condition variable to
handle the difference, but that will be another extra complication and
not worthy IMHO.

Indeed I tends to remove all the warning messages, and do nothing else more
if rv != 0 from Manage_subdevs(). How do you think of this idea? Checking the
array state indeed doesn't help too much.

Yes, I am aware of this. But the existed coding style in this file is the hard
coded strncmp(). So if we do want to print the warning for a broken array, it
would be better to add the map_name() fixing in another patch. I mean, do one
thing in single patch.

Indeed, I still suggest to remove all the pr_err() stuffs, they cannot help too
much, and introduce extra complication.

Sure, it's good idea, let's do it later.

Thank you for the code review.

what about initializing the sysfs earlier and passing mdi to function? That
should resolve our problem.(Probably not a case anymore after dropping the
message).

LGTM. Incremental remove is designed to be system utility so the warning are
less important. User should use MISC --faulty and --remove.

Not a case if we are going to drop the message, correct? Feel free to handle
the state comparing across code in the future.
