[PATCH] dm snapshot: revise snapshot_resume's exception handover

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

 



Until now snapshot_resume only allowed the resuming snapshot to get the
exception store from another snapshot.

Revise snapshot_resume's exception handover to allow a snapshot to
handover its exceptions to another snapshot prior to resuming.

This is needed to accomodate the following sequence:
new_snapshot->ctr
old_snapshot->suspend
old_snapshot->resume
new_snapshot->resume

lvm2 relies on this sequence if 'lvchange --refresh' is used to start a
snapshot merge that was deferred until both origin and snapshot were not
in use.
