# Re-sending just the dm part. Hi Alasdair, This patch adds a remapping trace to request-based dm. BIO-based dm already has the equivalent tracepoint. For example, under this dm stack (linear LV on multipath): # dmsetup ls --tree -o ascii vg-lv0 (253:1) `-mpath0 (253:0) |- (8:160) |- (66:80) |- (65:176) `- (65:160) Trace of 'dd of=/dev/vg/lv0 bs=128k count=1 oflag=direct' looks like this: without the patch: dd-6674 [000] 539.727384: block_bio_queue: 253,1 WS 0 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727392: block_remap: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 <- (253,1) 0 dd-6674 [000] 539.727394: block_bio_queue: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727405: block_getrq: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727409: block_plug: [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727410: block_rq_insert: 253,0 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727416: block_rq_issue: 253,0 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727426: block_rq_insert: 65,176 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6674 [000] 539.727427: block_rq_issue: 65,176 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] ... and with the patch: (the line with '**' is the trace added by this patch) dd-6617 [002] 162.914301: block_bio_queue: 253,1 WS 0 + 256 [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914314: block_remap: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 <- (253,1) 0 dd-6617 [002] 162.914316: block_bio_queue: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914331: block_getrq: 253,0 WS 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914335: block_plug: [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914337: block_rq_insert: 253,0 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914347: block_rq_issue: 253,0 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] **dd-6617 [002] 162.914356: block_rq_remap: 65,176 W 384 + 256 <- (253,0) 384 dd-6617 [002] 162.914358: block_rq_insert: 65,176 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] dd-6617 [002] 162.914359: block_rq_issue: 65,176 W 0 () 384 + 256 [dd] ...
