I'll be happy to jump into analyzing the multipath problem if invited. Meanwhile, I'll just include whatever patches I need in the target patch so people can test against mainline. There will be several months of that before we need to worry about stable internal interfaces. As far as LVM2 goes, you will never need to worry about the details of the device mapper interface, it's hidden behind user space utilities. Regards, Daniel
