@edolstra I think so too but we already have |

Tested on Intel MSM array, before the patch a reboot was practically guaranteed to start a resync. After the patch and four reboots no more resyncs. I think this is ready. |

Shutdown hooks are executed right before the shutdown, which is useful for some applications. Among other things this is needed for mdadm hook to run.
We also correct paths in udev rules. This is cleaner and allows for less unexpected behaviour. We still check for self-references, however we do it manually now and only for binaries as udev rules can have them. Rather, we patch them out during initrd generation now.
We don't patch basename and readlink now too as they were added for mdadm in 8ecd3a5.
This fixes a serious bug on NixOS with swraid where mdadm arrays weren't properly stopped on shutdown. Rather than fixing the unit by adding `Before=final.target` we completely move to upstream units, which uses systemd shutdown hooks instead. This also drives down maintenance costs for us.
Use systemd.packages instead, it's less error prone and more in line with what's expected.

@Mic92 All fixed, thanks! @GrahamcOfBorg build systemd mdadm |
