It will most certainly be evicted from memory. You might be better of using the more recent versions of multipath and making your custom priority callout as one of the libraries in the 'libprio' directory. You will need to modify the Makefile and the libprio.c to include your code. Keep in mind if you segfault in it you will bring down multipathd with it. Oh, and do post it on this mailing list so that multipath can nativly support the Compellant path priority code (I thought it was multibus??) -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
