Subject: dmsetup arguments

Hi,
XFStests suite generic/311 test fails on command: "sbin/dmsetup load
flakey-test --table "0 150000001 flakey /dev/sdc2 0 0 180 1 drop_writes"
with error: "device-mapper: reload ioctl on flakey-test failed: Invalid
argument", so as I understand the command format provided to ioctl is
incorrect here. Kernel logs has message:
"Jun 13 16:47:15 tests kernel: device-mapper: table: 252:3: flakey:
dm-flakey: Invalid argument count
Jun 13 16:47:15 tests kernel: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target
to table"
Looking into the source code of package LVM2.02.98 which devmapper
library belongs to I find argument "drop_writes" used in the command
only in documentation doc/kernel/flakey.txt:
"Optional feature parameters:
If no feature parameters are present, during the periods of
unreliability, all I/O returns errors.
drop_writes:
All write I/O is silently ignored.
Read I/O is handled correctly."
This argument feature was added in the patch from "27 Jun 2011":
"[dm-devel] [PATCH 0/9] dm flakey: add features
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* /From/: Mike Snitzer <snitzer redhat com>
* /To/: <dm-devel redhat com>
* /Cc/: Mike Snitzer <snitzer redhat com>
* /Subject/: [dm-devel] [PATCH 0/9] dm flakey: add features
* /Date/: Mon, 27 Jun 2011 15:53:34 -0400
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Add "drop_writes", "corrupt_bio_byte" and "debug" features to the
flakey target."
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2011-June/msg00081.html
but was patch modifications included in library of LVM2.02.98 package?
Or may be it was already removed from it after?
Thanks,
Alexander Tsvetkov
