It might be a workaround for the problems with the temporary device node (makedev macro seems to be the wrong choice...) but will get other problems. If udev/hotplug doesn't create the device node fast enough the call will fail. This was the reason to implement the "%d" support in the first place. May someone has a good idea how to do the node creation correctly... Regards, Stefan -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
