Subject: [git pull] device mapper changes for 4.18
Date: Mon, 4 Jun 2018 11:32:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180604153254.GA4793@redhat.com> (raw)
Hi Linus,
I've based on linux-block because the new dm-writecache target that is
in this pull needed to be updated to use the new bioset_init/mempool_init
interfaces.
The following changes since commit 04c4950d5b373ba712d928592e05e73510785bca:
block: fixup bioset_integrity_create() call (2018-05-30 18:51:21 -0600)

Please pull, thanks!
Mike
----------------------------------------------------------------
- Export 2 swait symbols for use by the new DM writecache target.
- Add DM writecache target that offers writeback caching to persistent
memory or SSD.
- Small DM core change to give context in error message for why a DM
table type transition wasn't allowed.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Mike Snitzer (1):
dm: report which conflicting type caused error during table_load()
Mikulas Patocka (2):
swait: export symbols __prepare_to_swait and __finish_swait
dm: add writecache target
