Subject: Barrier support in device mapper
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 11:27:37 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200809181127.37704.knikanth@suse.de> (raw)
Hi Alasdair
What are plans in supporting barriers in device mapper?
Sometime back Andi Kleen posted a patch[1] to support barriers for single-
device dm-devices.
Recently Milan Broz posted an RFC patch-set[2] to implement full-barrier
support.
Are we going to get full-barrier support soon? If not, I would like to see
Andi's patch being merged till we get full barrier support ready. I would like
to know your thoughts.
Thanks
