[RFC PATCH 3/8] rqbased-dm: dm_create()/alloc_dev() interface change

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

 



This patch changes the interface of dm_create() and alloc_dev()
so that the creator can specify whether the created device should
be hooked at bio-level or request-level.

Actual implementation of request-based initialization is done
in a separate patch.
