--- Comment #3 from Mason Loring Bliss <mason@blisses.org> ---
Persists on 12. Typical encounter for me is a server that was running FreeB=
SD
and
subsequently moved to GNU/Linux. Redeploying FreeBSD, evidently spoor from =
the
old install remains, and when I kldload geom_mirror, a degraded mirror is
raised
from the dead. Evidently there's some sort of in-memory corruption after th=
is
as removing the remnants gives me assertion errors, and I'm not able to pro=
ceed
until I clear memory with a reboot.

I haven't read or traced the code yet, but at a guess something's seeing en=
ough
indication of the old mirror to assume there's a mirror component there, and
then trusting that additional on-disk data is valid when it's not. This wou=
ld
be pretty consistent with an assertion firing.

If life permits, I'll learn enough to track down just what's happening.
