This series is a result of looking at Joe's comments : http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-January/msg00403.html To an old series I posted and has been stuck on the bottom of a todo list regarding adding/using "thin" logical volumes: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-December/msg00706.html Joe's patch is refactord into two patches to do essentially the same thing, but add a bit more context/thoughts. The first two patches have no functional changes, just some comment changes and some code motion. The result of Joe's patches is that libvirt can find a thin logical volume if the libvirt pool looking at the containing volume group has a thin logical volume pool. Still to be done is the (cap)ability to create a thin logical volume pool and the thin logical volume(s) in the pool. Just figured it'd be easier to post some patches and to let discussion happen.
