I expect that we will support the shared implementation(s) on the top of the existing snapshot code instead of inventing a new target_type (as Mikulas do with multisnap_*). If not, we can live without refactoring the existing snapshot code. But surely supporting the shared implementation(s) on the top of the existing snapshot code needs more refactoring. Jonathan, have you already started to work on it? -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
