[PATCH 2/2] virDevMapperGetTargetsImpl: Check for dm major properly

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In v6.4.0-rc1~143 I've introduced a check that is supposed to
return from the function early, if given path is not a dm target.
While the idea is still valid, the implementation had a flaw.
It calls stat() over given path and the uses major(sb.st_dev) to
learn the major of the device. This is then passed to
dm_is_dm_major() which returns true or false depending whether
the device is under devmapper's control or not.

The problem with this approach is in how the major of the device
is obtained - paths managed by devmapper are special files and
thus we want to be using st_rdev instead of st_dev to obtain the
major number. Well, that's what virIsDevMapperDevice() does
already so might as well us that.
