Description kcwu 2014-05-25 11:20:00 UTC
/etc/rc.d/mdconfig supports mdconfig unit name detection.

(line 194)
if [ -z "${_mdconfig_list}" ]; then
        for _mdconfig_config in `list_vars mdconfig_md[0-9]\* |

However, it treats all md[0-9]* as mdconfig unit even for extra parameters.
For example, "mdconfig_md0_perms" will be recognized as unit "md0_perms".

This will produce error messages during boot. But seems harmless.

How-To-Repeat: mdconfig_md0="-t swap -s 512m"
mdconfig_md0_perms="1777"

Following is boot error message:

Creating md0 device (swap).
Mounting /dev/md0.
Creating md0_perms device (1777).
usage: mdconfig -a -t type [-n] [-o [no]option] ... [-f file]

       mdconfig -d -u unit [-o [no]force]
